Well, yeah- the Suzuki 1.3 turbo comes from the exact same chassis as the Geo Metro, considering that the Metro is really a rebadged Suzuki Swift. I was talking about that Geo Storm. The Storm is an Isuzu Impulse. If it's running a Suzuki engine, I'd like to learn more about the setup. I suspect that it's got a turbo Impulse RS engine under the hood, not a Suzuki engine.

The dude with the LS1 was real cool and let us use his car as a test subject for doing that kinda video.. I must say it was well worth the effort of doing it for all the people on that board to get their panties in a bunch..

Ah, ok. Totally staged then.

Suzuki never made a 1.3L turbo. They made a 1.3L DOHC 16V four cylinder that made 100 HP, NA, but never turbocharged it. They DID, however, make a turbo 1.0L, which was just the 998cc three cylinder six valve SOHC with MPFI and the smallest turbo ever built.
And why would you put a 1.3L engine in a car that comes with a 1.6 or a 1.8?

Sorry man. I meant a 1.3L with a turbo added onto it.

Well, in the spring time, I'll be unleashing Project Li'l Bish. Delays, the AllTrac, and several bowel movements kept me from doing ANYTHING to it since May, but things are coming together nicely now.

They're pretty stout, but they don't have forged internals like you hear everyone saying.
