To be honest though, I think the mk2 1.1 has enough as a top speed. I've maxed out the speedo in mine (110mph). So it will do at least that given a long enough bit of road. It's acceleration can be a bit disappointing at times though, so I guess more power would help that.
no way you will do 110 in a 1.1 the xr2 doesnt do much more
