Let me first thank you for taking a look.

Anyways, a co-worker of mine notice me checking out this site and we got to talking about cars and such. He has an 03' Kia Rio (it gets better) with a 1.6L motor. He has asked me if there was a way to get better performance ie. turbo or supercharging. I told him I would look into it and came up with very little. What I'm asking this forum is if anyone has heard of something that would apply to my friends perdicament, please share the wealth. Links are very welcome. Thank you.

depending on mileage and how well the motor was taken car of you probably wounldnt need to reinforce the motor.....but be aware it will eventually blow up on you or wear out the motor, as with all F/I


with a 50shot, it shouldnt do too much harm to the engine, especially since it is a low compression engine that is barely making power as it is.

it will probably wear out your wallet pretty fast tho, its hard not to use it when you have it installed. thats why i took the nitrous off of my WRX
