    Intesresting insight i got from my dealership (re: smart 1.0 turbo)

    It appears that the smart 1.0l turbo and mirage 1.0 and 1.2 share the same engine block meaning that the turbo should be bolt on

    If any body has more info on this please input it .

    I am still looking up on the net will come back with more info as I get them

    Second generation (2007–present)

    Engine and fuel economy

    The new 999 cc I3 version 3B21 (2007 onwards) is produced by Mitsubishi Motors and it comprises normally aspirated and turbo versions. German tuner company Brabus, in a joint venture with Smart, has developed a high powered version of the 1.0-litre turbo, producing 102 PS (75 kW; 101 bhp), originally available only in Europe, but now available elsewhere. A small 0.8-litre three-cylinder turbo diesel common rail engine is available in most European markets.

    via wikipedia. so this might be interesting

    Well it will be like any engine that is standard, can handle 5-8 psi daily, more than that and it will just crap itself from the block. But even low boost like that is awesome fun.
