Just wondering if it can be done. What possible modifications can be made to a daihatsu charade to make it a little rocket. Some ideas would be great and wether a turbo can be put on one. Cheers

all the same mods that make vl-t's will make most things turbo go. remember, there are turbos for almost all sizes of engines. if it has oil pressure, you can turbo it. and if it doesnt have oil pressure, but a belt driven oil pump on and GIVE it pressure. there are guys in the states that have turbo'd lawnmowers, bike and just about anything you can think of!

why, turbo charade would not be quick, ther is one around this area with ALOT of money spent on the engine, like a ****LOAD..rumor has it that it gets raped by stock late model commo 6's.

Is this going on a 3 cylinder or 4 cylinder charade? 4 I hope, but anyway....there are factory charade turbos out there, the mid-late 80's and early 90's models were available in turbo.
