ITBs

not cheap or from ford though

As far as i know best Fiesta inlet is an RS1800 one. Think you can also fit a plastic 2.0 jobbie, but not sure of any benefits over RS, apart from wider availabilty.

Individual Throttle bodies, whereas a 1.6 Si, has one puny throttle body shared amongst all 4 inlet ports, the conversion would have one throttle per port. Freeing up lots of air flow, and not being restricted by the manifold.

Expensive and requires a change in management though.

Exactly.

Megasquirt (and similar), allows for a custom mapping set-up, and is therfore essential for enableing the use of anything other than the standard ECU for fueling. This can be from anything as simple as adding/removing something as trivial as a lambda sensor or AFM sensor set-up, to programming a turbo/supercharger or TB.

a "superchip" (or similar) piggy-back on the existing ECU to give additional maps. This is simply adding or reducing fuel at certain points in the rev-range to optimize the existing set-up.
The main trick a chip has up its sleeve, is significant richening of the air/fuel ratio at WOT (Wide Open Throttle)!!
