your really not going to get much of an increase out of a 1.1 im afriad mate. It is always said but really is the best option, get a vts or even a vtr engine.

But if you really want to get somethin else out of it get an enclosed induction kit like a Green or BMC

With the exhuast the best performance comes from a full system, but then again you should see much better increases if you combine it with a decat and manifold, though im unsure if anyone makes a manifold for the 1.1

Best proven system is the BTB/GMC one though im unsure if it would be wise for you to spend that amount of money on a 1.1 exhaust.

Magnex, scorpion, piper are all good to

the universal back box will fit, but will need to made to fit i.e. you will need to take it somewhere as extra piping or hangers may need to be made
