Not sure what engine availability you have in France.

In North America a 4ac (1.6l) is an easy upgrade that will produce a little more power.

A more difficult upgrade is a 4age or 4afe; these will produce much more power.

Any 'a' series engine from Toyota can be made to fit. You can see this site for specifications on all Toyota engines:

Le plus dur pour toi sera de trouver un moteur, pas croqué de préférence.
Le plus simple c'est de trouver une Corolla 1.6 à 8 soupapes.
Le plus efficace sera de préparer soigneusement ton moteur qui n'est pas bien poussé d'origine.

Longue route...
