1.6 to AEF SWAP

[BoostedOne]

Now yall do got me thinking.  But i guess the only way i can see it really improving mileage is by giving more air to burn the fuel from the dumb pump.  Ie, if im smoking some during acceleration the Turbo will give more air to actually use that slight excess of fuel.
However if i were to put a turbo pump on it, milage will definitely be depending on my foot

Yes exactly. EVERY N/A smokes during acceleration as they struggle to pull in enough air to gain RPM.

Add a turbo, change nothing else, that wasted fuel now gets you up to speed quicker where the same amount of fuel used before is still being used. Instant savings.

If you put a Turbo pump on it you will have the ability to tune for absolutely no smoke ever and see suuuppeerr smileage.

Thanks for planting the seed yall.  Lol.  Just ordered a PD130 intake today...  i actually kind of needed it anyhow though because im not going to weld build a 1.6 or counterflow gasser intake to match the ports, and i don't have the cast inlet elbow for my existing 1.9 intake(pretty similar to a AAZ intake).  The way i saw it i could make an adaptor but it would probably flow like crap, especially if it stayed na.  PD1_0 intake may be overkill for a mild turbo 1.9, but if i leave it non turbo would probably be alot better.

At this point i could turbo this motor pretty easy.   BUT the parts combo probably wouldn't be ideal.  I have the parts to:
Na 1.6 pump
Freshly rebuilt 1.6 injectors with new nozzles and needles
Pd130 intake
Ported callaway exhaust manifold.  Its set up for a T3 flange now
T3 60 trim compressor with 48 ar exhaust...
3" mandrel turbo back
Boostvalve mbc

Guess my concern is even with a large exhaust and a ball&spring mbc that the lag may make it not worthwhile for the purpose above(make use of existing unburnt fuel, not crank up pump and make more power)?
I never thought i would say it but i wish i had a k03 laying around with a manifold to bolt it to lol!

Can't edit for some reason but to clarify i meant if i was to stay NA, that a PD130 or 150 intake would probably be noticably better than the early 1.9 intake with a cobbled inlet elbow. So the way i saw it na it would be better than the existing intake,  turbo it wouldn't be any worse so the pd was a win win either way.

And the parts list was stuff i currently already have on hand.  So even though 3" is overkill, i already have j bends and pipe so anything larger than the existing stock exhaust that's not a 3" means buying parts
