mine lasted 1 week :) but that was mainly down to overboosting and from
running the wrong spark map http://www.micra.com.au/community/message.php?messageid=72737 |

Im running a megasquirt ECU to sort out the fueling and spark maps , planning to start with it in the next few weeks to see if it will hold up , if not got a cheap 1.3 engine waiting to pick up

Why put 1.0L pistons in an 1.3L engine? For turbo? You want less compression with a turbo setup not more

At first i was going N/A then got hold of a dirt cheap turbo and the rest of the story is clear, it will have much more mid range punch with that ratio if anything else.
