I had my golf gti tdi remapped to 200bhp and shedloads of torque. Best £400 I've spent. Alot of people use aftermarket filters with a drilled out airbox as this is supposed to help breathing no end.

fiesta diesels use the citreon lump!

put a t4 and a rs500 intercooler on it

a chip will help no end but the air filter is part of the cam cover and is a pain in the arse to change and i dont know if an induction kit could or could fit!

just chip it and be done me thinks
