How to get more hp from R4 GTL 1108c.c????

[em98007]

Hello.
To begin I´m sorry to write in english but since I´m Portuguese it´s a bit hard to write in nederland...
I own a 1989 Renault 4 gtl 1108cc and I´ve made some changes to engine, nothing to deep, just the carb and the manifold (exchanged the zenith 28 if for the 32 along with manifold) and I would like to know if anyone out there has more ideas to get extra hp from this engine (camshafts,heads...)
Best regards

Doesn´t anybody has any idea??I´m still curious to know if you´ve got some tuning that i haven´t thought about...
Waiting for ideas

Why don't you use some NOS?

NOS?!Hum...how many hp?:)
I guess the engine would blow... or not?
That would make my r4 a mad, mean, machine...

Da-Goof do you think its possible to adapt a compressor to this engine?

As far as I know NOS means New Old Stock... but what Da-Goof means with it...?

NOS » Nitro!!!:)

NOS = nitrogeous oxygen sulfur??? or something like that.

Making small mods to a 1108 cc block will not push you enough.
Try mounting a 1400 or, even better, a 1400 turbo (from the Renault 5), that'll boost you more. But I presume you don't have such parts in your garage.
