Hi, My name is Justin and I am 17 years old and drive a 1991 Chevy Sprint. I am I diehard Suzuki fan and I am working on putting the body of the Sprint on to a Sammi frame being powered by a supercharged Sidekick 1.6L EFI engine and have an Atlas II transfer case with Dana 44 axles(locked of course). I am hopping to be able to stuff some 33's or maybe 35's under it. Here's a pic of the car as is.

Cool Sprint.  I really like those cars.  That project of yours sounds pretty intense.  I look forward to see how it comes out.

More details on the supercharged 1.6L, please. Did you modify the supercharger to fit the Sidekick engine, or is there a kit available?

Well I know they make a supercharger kit for the 1.3L in the Sammi so I hope to modify it to fit the 1.6L engine. This will also be my daily driver so it won't be too extreme. It will have a snorkle though ;)

I believe the Calmini Supercharger (well it really wasn't THEIRS, and I heard recently that the company that built it has been bought out) was for a 1.3 with regular carbs, not EFI...

the suzuki swift gti cam with a 1300 cc 4 cyl that is a very peepy engine that is fully capable of revving to 8900 rpm and still stay happy it came stock with a forged crank and fairly strong internals the one i used to own was sold to a friend it wil be running 8psi daily and is expected to make roughly 140-160 hp all that and a car that only weighs in at 1800 lbs

all ican say is power to weight baby this thing is gonna rock all those civics out there
