i dunno - my 1.6 revs almost identical to the 1.3 - its just gearing and rubber that affects rpm etc... more power and torque are the benefits - so you wont be labouring the engine as much to attain a given speed.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suzuki_G_engine
G13

The G13 is an in line 4 cylinder engine utilizing aluminum alloy for the block, cylinder head and pistons. Displacing 1.3 L (1324 cc/ in³) for the G13A and (1298 cc/79 in³) for all other G13 engines, fuel delivery is either through a carburetor, single point fuel injection or multi-point fuel injection.
This engine was made with different valvetrain designs: 8 or 16 valve SOHC or 16 valve DOHC.
[edit]G13A
The SOHC 8-valve G13A has a non-interference valvetrain design. It was used in the following vehicles:
November 1984– Suzuki Cultus AB51S
November 1984– Suzuki Cultus AB51B
1986–1989 Suzuki Samurai
– Suzuki SJ413
[edit]G13B
This DOHC 16-valve engine is well known, it uses the older distributor driven off the intake camshaft, and produces approximately 100 hp(74 kW) @ 6500rpm / 83 ft·lb(112Nm) @ 5000rpm. Redline is set at 7400-7600RPM. Like many DOHC engines, this engine has an interference valvetrain design, making periodic timing belt changes vital to the engine's life. It was used in the following vehicles:
1986-1989–Suzuki Swift GTi AA33S
1988– Suzuki Cultus AA34S AB34S
1990– Suzuki Cultus AB34S
1989– Suzuki Swift AC34S DOHC
[edit]G13BA
The SOHC 8-valve G13BA has single-point fuel injection and produces 50 kW (68 PS; 67 hp) and 74 lb·ft (100 N·m) of torque. It has a non-interference valvetrain design. 1995 to 1997 U.S. and Canadian-market engines gained hydraulic lash adjusters. It was used in the following vehicles:
1989 Suzuki Sidekick
1989–1997 Suzuki Swift
1992–1997 Geo Metro
1990– 1995 Suzuki SJ413
[edit]G13BB
The SOHC 16-valve G13BB has electronic MPFI Multi-point fuel injection, generating 56–59 kW (75–79 hp) at 6,000 rpm and 104–115 N·m (77–85 ft·lbf) at 4,500 rpm. The G13BB has 2 coil packs bolted directly to the valve cover, although early models still had the coil packs mounted to the left side of the head, traditionally where the distributor was located. This engine uses a MAP sensor to monitor manifold pressure, unlike the G16 series. This engine has a non-interference valvetrain design. It uses the same G series block found in many other Suzuki models and so it is a popular conversion into the Suzuki Sierra 4wd, which uses either a G13A(85-88) or G13BA(88.5-98). This allows the engine to fit into the engine bay simply as engine and gearbox mounts are identical and both engines are mounted North-South.
It was used in the following vehicles:
1995– Suzuki Baleno
1998–2004 Suzuki Jimny, Suzuki Swift
1998–2001 Geo/Chevrolet Metro
Ultralight aircraft [1]

I get 8.4L/100km in my stock drover running 215/75r15. That is driving under 95kmh on the highway like a complete nanna to try and get the best possible fuel economy. If driven even slightly more aggressively and sitting over 100kmh it'll be up in the 10L/100km bracket. That motor could wind of the speedo down hill tho I think it was a bit of a freak motor. To bad it just blew a ring...
