Default my focus.....

Firstly Hi Guys I'm new and am hoping to use some of your knowlege.

Bit of background to bore you, I have a focus 2002 (facelift) Silver ltd edition. Its a lovely car with the leather, I have it looking and handleing great with 17" lenso KR5's and adjustable koni's all round, tints cat back magnex, cold air induction etc...etc...

My problem now is Its no where near fast enough, its probably about 110bhp if that, I need more. I have heard that these zetec se engines dont tune that well and with cams and a proper re-map Im looking at 130 bhp ish.
My question is, I have 2 mechanic frinds which should help costs, one with garage and ramp etc..., and this car needs to be faster. What is the best most cost effective way of hitting 160-200 real bhp
Obviously making it stop will then become important to so that would also help. It is my daily drive so it has to be reliable and economical within reason (i.e capable of 30mpg on a run hopefully) but we all know thats not that important also Im 20 with 3 years no claims so insurance is a bit of an issue but again, not major.

Cheers in advance guys!
