That sounds great it should go very well indeed.
Nice find, BJ.
I always search for Mirage videos, but I guess I missed this one because he called it "Mirageturbo".
Hopefully the mystery will be solved!

i wonder what these small size ice do in the long run
i have spoking to a mecanic and he tells me that there are a lot of ford ecoboost cars with trouble
a 1 liter ice in a 1200kg+ needs to work hard
ofcource the mirage is low in wieght so not that problem

i wonder when this hits the media....
in time this will pile up!
I'd have to disagree. Diesels have a horrible life being high compression and turbocharged. Yet, they last very long. Why? Because they are designed for it. There is no reason why a small engine can't be designed with a turbo and last just as long as a larger engine.

I have 3 spare TD03 turbos sitting at home doing nothing. They come off a 2.5L twin turbo V6.
Suffice to say it's very close on cylinder capacity for turbo (1.25l 3cyl per turbo on the Legnum)
Been trying to find a place to do a manifold for me hehe
