Yeah theres no point tuning a 1.1, as u cant polish a turd. (No offense but it aint worth it). Either a turbo or xr will be loads quicker, and remember to upgrade the suspension and brakes so that u get round the corners and stop for those annoying traffic lights. :D U could get an xr engine for about 200 quid for a goodun. Im not sure about wiring etc as im not hot in that area. Or sell the car and get an xr for under a grand.
