Suzuki Swift 1998: Easy way to increase power?

I own a 1998 Suzuki Swift Cino with a 1.3-litre engine and five-speed gearbox, but I would like to get more power out of it. Is there anything I can do that would be fairly cheap?

Changing the camshaft, and fitting exhaust extractors and a free-flow exhaust system is the cheapest and most effective way of improving the bottom end and mid-range performance of your Suzuki. Cost would be about $1000. A more radical step would be to fit a motor from a GTi, and that could be done for about $3000 and would include the front suspension, brakes, and all ancillaries from a GTi. That would make your Cino a real flyer. For more info, give Suzi World a call on 9459 8988.
