No. Earth does not spin faster than Saturn. Saturn spins faster than all the planets except Jupiter. Extra information- Jupiter is bigger than Saturn.

A planet that is farther from the sun has a lower linear speed and takes longer to complete a revolution. Earth takes about 365.256 days to complete a revolution with respect to a distant "fixed" point, and its average speed with respect to the sun is about 29.78 km/s. Saturn takes about 10,759.22 Earth days to complete a revolution, and its average speed with respect to the sun is about 9.69 km/s.

Saturn orbits at a slower speed as it is further out. Planets closer to the sun will orbit in less time and move at a higher speed.

What happens to a gaseous planet when it rotates faster?

A planets rotation speed stays pretty much as it is. A faster rotating gas planet (or any planet for that matter) will become squashed or flattened (an oblate spheroid). So the diameter accross the equator will be bigger than the pole to pole diameter.
