Just reading through all these posts, haha! no way will a 1.1 do those speeds, my brothers 1.1 (R.I.P the poor car) got up to 100mph (the night he crashed).... But doing 70 on a duel carriage way the steering wheel shaked... ALOT!

My 1.1 will do 196mph at a push.
In all seriousness I've never done above 80. Two reasons really, it doesn't feel safe, and I don't wanna get fucked over for speeding.
Driving at 100mph+ counts as driving like a cock in my book.

just finished reading everyones comments on this thread and the most questions ask is how did they managed to get 113, 120 etc on a 1.1??
The answer is... they are using a dash/dials with a speedo measuring Kmph rather than Mph. SIMPLES! for more info go to meerkats.com!
I have a 1.1 R Reg its standanrd except for the stainless steel exhaust and compomotive alloys installed on it, and i have to say its quite slow, espcially when you stop at the traffic light then move again.

care to explain how it would rev higher with no adjustment to the ecu, and the point in revving higher with no increase in duration/lift of the camshaft?

the 1.1 is sloww...... what more is there to it.
and it is a shopping car after all tbh if you want performance you buy one built for it in the first place. Other than cosmetic mods (alloys etcc) absolutly no point in doing anything to the engine in a 1.1.
more than likely will just make it worse like people who put on hugeee filters am sure its doing more harm than good. The only sane thing i can think of is just strip it out and get rid of anyhting not needed lightness will surely make it faster than any expensive exhaust etcc..
