Super or turbo for the 1.6 SOHC?

Post by manowar821 »

I was thinking... How difficult would it be to get a turbo into an MX3 with the sohc 1.6?
Or better yet, has anyone ever thought about SUPERcharging? I meen, all it really takes is some custom tubing, or maybe even buying different shaped tubes from different places.
I would LOVE to turbo or supercharge my sohc...
Oh and I don't plan on engine swapping, so don't post about it.
feel free to post any idea about getting more HP out of that little 1.6 we all own. We'll call it a brainstorming session :-P
