not meaning to sound a fool, but can you get racing cams for 1.1 lx, and if u can do they make a lot of difference to the performance of the car, i already have a bolt on filter and exhaust. and is there anything else that will improve its performance????

You will get a cam for your car....but....do not expect huge power increases.
Is your car Efi ? or carb ?

yeah u can get cams for it, they make a slight difference, not really worth the hassle, i own a 1.1 and trust me, if u wanna have a fast car, get another engine, 1.3's are identical and can be put in very easily, put 1 of them in and u will feel the difference, then u can stick a cam in that and it would be worth it, 1.1's are just 4 show with no go, excellent for the insurance man, but 'fuckin 's**t for racing. just waitin 4 next year then with my NCB i can insure a 2i.

Yeah it's easy to PUT THEM IN. Try wiring it all up and gettin it to work tho along with the rest of the gubbins needed, like brakes suspension is a different matter. U basically need the whole lot from a FRST
I gotta 1.1 too and really am in a dillema as to what to do next. I got the money for a new car, but i spent too much on this one. If i get a new engine i think i will get bored too quickly unless it's a turbo
what do i do! best to get a different engine mate
