since money isnt a problem sell the 1.1 and buy a vts thats your starting point

The 1.1 isnt up to much tuning wise im afraid and not much point in putting lots of cash into it for very little gains

right well ill look into that for future plans but for now ill hava play with this

honestly not worth the trouble or expense to tune the 1.1 you could transplant the vts engine over to your car

or even the vtr is a better option

or if you are really desperate to do the 1.1 thing then start with

enclosed induction kit
exhuast system

follow on from there with a new maniolfd and after that your into the world of the unknown really, but normal route after that is cam and dastec or head work then throttle bodies/super charger/ turbo

Good luck if you go for it properly
