Would love to see it with a wee turbo on it, could use a smart car turbo there similar sized would need a quite few other bits changing to make it work but would be summat diffrent
Keep up the good work
cheers mate ive been looking in to turbos for a 1.0 but cant afford then

There's a 1.2 corsa with a metro turbo fitted, which is probably one of the cheaper options. Quite rare to get hold of one though i'd imagine.
