MG ZR ZS ZT Technical - ZS120 'Tuning'

Hi

Is it possible to "tweak" the ECU etc or "chip" the ZS120 and what kind of performance increase could you get without bolting on turbos or super-chargers or anything over the top like that. I am interested in a subtle "tweak" or "perk" - if you know what I mean :o)

If anybody knows where these things can be done, how much etc...

Thanks

If you haven't already done so, then changing the air filter and exhaust box help, ask JLD, he did it on his. Not sure how mauch extra he got but it did sound nice. I think JLD still visits this forum. Can't help on the chip side.

I currently have the K&N Panel filter (direct replacement).

Maybe I shall look into the whole induction kit.

Demon ask this question on the F technical forum , the 120 is essentially the same as the F engine
