Welcome to the club. Am not particularly familiar with the TU3 engines but as far as I know there won't be a cheap n easy route to more power. Anyway, if you're young n declare any tuning for your insurance it would likely make it prohibitively expensive n you might as well buy something else with a few more ponies under the bonnet.
Failing that, making sure the engine still has decent compression & is well serviced is worthwhile. After that shedding weight from the car, particularly rotating mass of the wheels is an easy win. I expect the 1.4 came with reasonably skinny steel rims so not sure how much weight you can reasonably save from them.
Sorry can't be more help.
