I doubt youll get better MPG unless you go for a 1.6na!
My 1.7 used to give me great MPG - better than a 1Y or AAZ.
If money is an important factor, then i'd stay with what you have unless the 1.7 is completely broken. There is a performance boost going for a 1Y (and a nice one going to a aaz) but IMHO its not worth spending the cash unless you really need to.
However, if cash isnt an issue, then slap a TDI in with a reconed/re-geared gearbox in!

My AEF powered van averages around 35mpg! More poke than my old JX too! I'm well chuffed with it.
