On my way back next July I've left myself 1 hour 25 to transfer from the KUL flight to my return to LHR. Is this enough? Both flights are with SQ and I was hoping they would check me through in KL and the transfer would be easy, but it appears I will have to change terminals?
Any advice would be appreciated.

Well I have not been to Changi airport with the new terminal BUT assuming the normal efficiency of Changi airport, I assume it will be fine.
On a side note, was on the SQ VF site last night between alternative versions of YouTube. Noticed that SQ maybe opening a new first lounge (Gold Lounge?) and a drive up checkin for first folks. Maybe worth a call.

Minimum connection time at Changi is 45 mins for intercontinental flights so no need to worry. Skytrain will transfer you between the terminals.

Thanks.
I guess not all airports are chaotic!

Changi is a model of what airports should be. I've regularly transited there between Korea and India, as well as a number of trips in to Singapore.
SQ flights are split between the two main terminals, though most are from the same terminal (forget which one it is), but they are interconnected and you can walk between the two without really noticing that it's a different terminal, and you can hussle from gate to gate within ten minutes if needs be.
The biggest problem with a short transit time is that you'll miss out on the shopping!
