Default turbo size for mini 1000

Curious what would be a decent size turbo for a mild build 1973 Mini cooper 1000cc.... i have one sitting in my back yard and think I may attack it this winter?

I agree the key chain size K03 would be **** on that and there plentiful in decent shape as there of a newer vehicle.

Was given the car to me for free. I saw it sitting on some land in BC. Offered to buy it from them fir 3 years in a row. Finally they told me to take it off their land for free.

K03 me thinks I will go with. Now what if I were to say that I was going to transplant a gsxr 1000 in the front. Would the k03 still work nicely?
