If you wanted to give the 1.4 a chace it will need a free flowing exhaust. I'm sure no on e would notice very slight porting of the head and slightly reworked cam???? :o

In fairness the 1.4 is not much slower than a 1.7 tbh.

with that done and the apropiate suspension mods you would have a good car. You will struggle agains the revvy 16v lumps - you'll just have to give it that little bit extra.

If you can make a car that doesn't break down you are 50% of the way on an endurance from what I've seen ;)
