Turbocharger for Kia Picanto?

[monmendoza]

Guys,
Meron bang nagbebenta ng accessories for the Kia Picanto. Paborito ko kasi itsura ng kia picanto and I was thinking to make it a project car. Meron bang after market suppliers for a turbo charger and probably disk brakes for for the rear. What are the available accessories for the Picanto. Parang ang sarap gawing project car. Convert an ordinary picanto to probably 150HP. Anybody who can give me some suggestions?

I'm also want to do this. Actually may gumawa na nito sa ibang bansa. Taga Malaysia ata or Singapore or Europe. I'm just not sure. Pero sa Getz may turbo kits pero sa 1.4 models. Sa pica kasi 1.1.
Try this link. It may help.

The 1.1 is built more for economy than power (in fact, Kia warns against wringing it out for long periods of time). You might want to consider an engine swap? Say, to a 1.5 Getz turbodiesel? :evil:

Thanks for the link. I have read it but it seems that the trubo kit is not yet ready. You mentioned about the turbo kits for the Getz. Is it locally availbale?
thanks

at 1.1 L engine...malamang hindi kaya ng internals nito and external ang power na 150hp.

better get an engine swap and upgrade the engine donor instead.

this way you can always put back the stock engine.

as for the brakes, maybe the after market brakes (brembo) that fits the Honda Jazz can be adapted to it.

you will probably spend enough to buy another picanto for that project upgrade....
