Re: turbo aveo?
Ok I'll explain instead of talk ---- and see if that helps. Aftermarket support for an Aveo may as well be non-existant. There's no market. Build quality=horrible btw. If I'm not mistaken; the motor in the Aveo is the 1.6L I4 from the ------- Daewoo Lanos and other ---- butt communist cars. It has mad tyte Korean E-tec II (roflrofl), 103hp at the crank and a massive 107 ft/lbs of torque. The Aveo is the equivalent of Chinese turbos. It's ching chong except different.
It's not made to handle more power than stock and everything is built to keep costs low. Say goodbye to your gearbox if you drive it hard not to mention boost it. At least the other sub compact Japanese cars are made with good quality metals and are engineered thoroughly. Your Korean motor will ---- itself under any kind of forced induction. You'll definitely be knocking at some point with an FMU. Knock kills motors. At least it has an iron block, so it does have that going for it, but the rotating assembly is brittle.
The cylinder heads are designed with one goal in mind: good mpg. Adding forced induction is like trying to breath through a straw. The intake manifolds are plastic, but are at least engineered to help rather than hurt. The throttle body is pathetically tiny. Properly boosting this car will require 1 off custom parts which will cost money.Your "buddy" could buy a 1G DSM or CRX or whatever instead of dropping $ into a terrible platform that's doomed from the start. There. I explained it while I was sober instead of being a drunk ***.

i asked if it would be possible to run a map sensor and maf as the car already has a maf and will need the map for boost
i agree with d16 i mean were all here to go fast on the cheap (tho admittedly some have to go a little cheaper than others, but no big deal)
and do the work ourselves because we eat sleep and breathe cars
i know turboing an aveo will be difficult and is far from cookie cutter but that is why i agreed to boost it for my friend because it'll be innovative, just like the first guy to do a mini me swap from honda parts laying arround or the turbo off and old volvo and threw it on a civic or swapped a k20 in a crx
i know there is no aftermarker support but i have friends that are machenists (spelling, i know but i don't feel like spell checking) and could make the pistons and crank and i have worked on plenty of fast na cars (up untill just a little bit ago i was all motor untill i rode in a built turbo civic that was done right) so i would have no problem porting the ---- out of the head for flow and i heard a rumor of cams that just came out (tho i am not sure, but i read on the net) that pull all the way to 7200rpm with just a little lack of torque i belive the numbers i read were like 134hp and 112ft-lbs (at the crank of course, that is like 31hp and 5ft-lbs of torque, i know that sounds like allot but with the small tb it reall runs out of breath by 4500-5000rpm)
maby if i can find these cams i will have him get them and maby make a custom intake to accept a bigger tb (i don't know what tb, whatever is cheap and similar so maby an ecotec tb or a b18 tb as b series parts seem cheap arround here) and get more air going in then build a custom full exhaust and and flash the ecu (i am sure someone out there knows how to flash the aveo's ecu for the additional air flow) and he will be happy until he parks it for the winter so we can get the stuff together to turbo it
i he is verry adiment he wants i turboed (and i can really use the $2500 hes paying me to do the work, i have bills mang)
