there are other ways to try and make a car feel more sporty than just increasing power. Look at getting some better brakes, allowing your missus to brake later then she normally would  on a more serious note, perhaps you could think about the placebo effect a good exhaust and filter will do. If its done properly, you can get marginal gains and at the same time, get a nice sound from the car, which will trick her into thinking the car is faster than it actually is

Thanks mate, I understand what you're saying. I don't want it too fast. I'm just after a little more power maybe about 10 - 15 more bhp, nothing major.
