it is possible to get 150 bhp from it 
1. get hold of a 1.5 td turbo, inlet manifold, exhaust manifold, fuel pump and turbo hoses.
2. do the boost and fuelling mod
3. fit intercooler
4. fit induction kit close to the turbo, u2u me for a pic of wat i meen
5. full exhaust, striahgt through bout 2 1/4 inch bore
6. bigger injectors
7. head work
8. good idea too use a 1.5 td head gasket too as its thicker.
9. front mounted oil cooler
10. bin the egr system
11. intercooler water spray
12. get a better exhaust manifold made up
13. methanol injection.
probably more than 150 bhp from that lot.

Do you get corrosion problems with an intercooler water spray?

no cos intercoolers are aluminium 
some top end scoobys have it standard.
