its a 1.1 for a reason, its designed to be economical and cheap. not to be fast. really dont waste your time and money. if you do, i bet youl look back and wish you hadn't bothered.

1.1 are slow save up and get a better model lol a vtr or vts no point modding the engine on a 1.1 would be a waste of time just add a sub or somethink modify the out side of the car like spolier or sumink or nice speakers inside that way you can always put it on your new faster saxo if you get one just be happy with what youv got for now better then no car at all mines pretty past for a 1.1i but not as fast as i would like it lol

everyone will just tell you it isnt worth the money, i agree it may not be woth it but if you get an exhaust and induction then you could put it onto a vtr if you get one, well some you can, i have a raceland on mine

cant realy do anything to make it go any faster, you could strip the car so theres less weight and buy a turbo but thats bout it.

realistically the gains you will get are minimal .. doesn't it have something like 65bhp to start with.
BUT
it will make the car rev a lot freer and feel faster so if thats what you want then go for it. Upgrade to a bigger engine when insurance / money allows.
