change the engine to a larger one, seriuosly that is the only way you will see any gains. even if it is only for a 1.3-1.4 it will make much more sense.
trust me :D

no point mixing and matching engines.

it wont go down well with the insurance companies, just go out and buy eg. xr2i and insure it as that!
