Decat, stainless exhaust, induction kit, chip, basic tuning is what they respond to best. getting proper power out of them, isnt easy, so your looking down the supercharged route.

They have pre-cats aswel, one on each of the exhaust manifolds, and the main cat. i decated my main cat, and it sailed through the MOT with just the pre cats, and i know plenty who have done the same. even if it failed the emissions tests, its literally a 10 minute job to put the cat back on, its only 4/5 bolts, depending wether you have a 2 or 3 bolt flange. being a later one, id bet yours has the 3 bolt flange, but still, it doesnt take long, and decatting them makes a notable difference to throttle response, they rev a lot more freely
