Yep, Suzuki did. Check out some of the suzuki swift forums, those boys will show you how to make your 1.3L be all it can be.

You will gain roughly the same power with a turbo'd 1.3 as a stock 1.6L 16valve. For the cost of a turbo setup, you might as well just go 16 valve and not worry about any hassles with a turbo'd engine. Or turbo the 16 valve :grinpimp:

when do 16 vavles have 200hp?

Not talkin about a stock 13b. He's talking about a suzuki 1.3L being turbo'd. You may be lucky to get 120hp without having to run c16 and stupid boost numbers. Only advantage you would get is weight.

IV got everything to turbo my 1.6 8V just havent started putting shit together. I think for Im going to put my 4.3 in and turbo that instead....hehehe.

Id like to get low compression pistons for the zuk motor first. Iv got a T3(yea little big but I got a deal), Eclips intercooler, larger injectors FI manifold, MegaSwirt ECU, shedule 40 and 3/8th plate to make the manifold,,,,,,aaa some other crap to top it off.

The eclipse intercooler is really lame, it flows like ass. Get a Supra MKIV Sidemount intercooler. Usually you can get them for under $80 off of ebay, and they are very good, about twice as thick as a eclipse one.

Sell the T3 for dcent coin and get a 14b (less than $100 off of ebay) from a DSM, its good up to 5000-5200rpm @ 16psi. Take the money you made and put it towards other stuff.

Big turbo = big revs

1.6 8V + big revs = :nuke:

:laughing:

Really.....I got pretty waisted and Just held it to the floor untill it wouldnt rev any higher, got to about 9.5. No power up there anyway I was just being stupid drunk though Obviously lucky it didnt pop. No problems with anything now though,,,,hehe

I suggest a stutter box / rev limiter my friend. :flipoff2:

The Zook crowd I wheel with rev these little suckers until only dogs can hear them. It's one of the best things about these motors! 6000-7000 RPM is the norm for us. One guy even has a shot of nitrous on his 16valve motor for when he needs another 1000 RPM! :D


Sean :cool:

1.3's rev better than the 1.6, I run my 1.3 up to 7,000 on a fairly regular basis. I wouldn't make a habit of doing it with a 1.6 though. They don't rev quite as nice. 5-6 grand is still ok IMO.

Then I wouldnt have gotten so high:grinpimp: :smokin:

valve float sounds cool :flipoff2:
