      Turbo/Super charging my 10 Aveo mk2 help!!

      Me and a mate have been thinking on the idea of turbo charging or super charging my 10 Aveo mk2 for some time now as my pal has been working on his project car for some time. Now he is taking a break its time to start on mine just one problem I don't think anyone has done it yet!! Well at least were I'm from. I have a 1.25litre engine that I want turbo/super charge but need a bit on brains for the math involved or someone to tell me if it even possible to run a 1.25 on high boost and the goal is to get 150-200bhp its possible in other cars but in my Chevy I'm not to sure so people help or leave a comment and details of someone who could help thank you!!

      I'd bet you can get 150hp out of it, but 200 is going to be pushing it. There is only one way to find out!

      Of course, it can be done to any engine.

      Its certainly possible to turbocharge any motor - it just takes the right knowledge and skills.

      As for your power goals, 200hp on a 1.2L is really pushing it for pump gas. 150hp is a much more realistic goal. If you want bigger power I would suggest looking to do a motor swap to a 2.0L and turbo that.
