hey Fantom33, welcome to the site! :wink:

ummm regarding the 1.1 and what you could do, i'd suspect not much apart from adding a K&N bolt-on filter.

If I'm correct in thinking, it's a 1.1 OHV engine. Try http://www.larkspeed.co.uk and sort your self out with a Kent Cam for a bit more BHP. It may not be much but better than putting in a new lump and paying higher tax.

u can go mad, but its not cost evffective, better off buying zetec eng and parts over the next 18 months and then dropping that in when insurance is less.

I modded the 1.1 to its extreme and gopt 75-80bhp, while i can drop my zetec in in feb and get 130bhp, i did it the long (& expensive) way round
