   There's very little gains to be had from a 1.1, I would suggest that you spent the money elsewhere - either with engine swaps (if you can afford the insurance) or styling mods, to make it look smarter

   I wouldn't go and put a 1.4 cam in as you may find you bend something in the process, as the other guys say, spend money on something with more power to begin with.

   It really does depend on the model to if it is a direct fit or not. There is many 1.4 and 1.1 engine variants used in the Saxo.

   i would just go for a conversion mate, i think im right in thinking you can get a custom loom to link 3 plug to a single plug off here?

   Yep just splice the loom, you can run a 3 plug to single without too many problems
