how hard would it be?
what would i need to do?
its a 1 ltr 5 speed, maybe a charade turbo and manifold?
Turbo my truck?
Charade is 3 cylinder, F10A is 4 cylinder, so that won't work. Problem with the F10A is that is uses a side-draught carby, so you'd need to do a draw-through setup.

what about a small supercharger?? i was thinkin about one off a 4agze?
4AGZE charger would be slightly too big, plus it doesn't solve the problem of the carby not being designed to take positive pressure.
The simplist solution would be a draw-through turbo setup. The turbo from a 1L charade would be perfect for that application.

No, the Charade has a blow-through design, but you couldn't use that carby because it is a downdraught, and your motor will only accept a side draught as I mentioned. I was only suggesting that you use the turbo from a 1L Charade, nothing more. You will need a custom exhaust manifold to fit it.

so i need a side draught carby, and a turbo and a custom manifold??
expected cost?
~$200 for the turbo, probably around the same for a side-draught weber. (DCOE or similar). ~$400 or so for a custom manifold and dump pipe.
Then you'll need to regraph the distributor, run oil lines for the turbo and tap a return into the sump.

i sontt suppose you want to sell it all then?
Being a 3 cylinder engine none of it would be of any use to you.
