Mr Banton, the 2.0 zetec is also not easy in a mk5 ( mk4 facelift actually if anyone cares )

Easiest thing to do is tune the existing 1.6. Can do 150bhp from it for under £1500 and I'll bet he has the exhaust already

Shawspeed ss4 cams
4-2-1 Mnifold
Rod end bolts and valve springs ( not entirely necessary unless you want to go a lot further )
remap

150bhp Simples, its proven, time and time again and cheap for a 50% increase on a NA engine
