twinhope88: yup, i agree with Weikee, very hard to do swapping btw FF and FR since different layout, alotta things also different. But if you want to bolt on turbo or supercharger, firstly our engine is high compression, I had a friend who bolt on turbo for NA cars w/o changing the compression. The result, more powerful than low compression turbo. But the engine wont last too long depends on how frequent you drive the car and the way you step on the pedal. Also, our piston is not as durable as a turbo piston therefore shorter engine life.
Turbo vs Superchrger -- Gd comparison, for me, i will rather choose turbo more than supercharger. Supercharger has a very good response of revving as the supercharger already working since engine idling, which is driven by belt, also reduce air pollution not like turbo which is driven by exhaust gas flow, thats why for now more and more car and also performance workshop i.e. HKS launch a series of supercharger kit for present cars. But the maintenance is a factor, compressor oil also very expensive. If you have to replace the faulty supercharger, it will cost you a bomb as supercharger is usually more expensive than turbine. I.e. the mercedes kompressor for 200K, try to ask the dealer how much is it and you will know, keke. Also, hard to adjust the boost i.e. have to change the pulley to adjust since it is belt driven. Turbo boost can be adjusted by valve system i.e. EVC (Electronic Valve Controller), which provides ease of adjustment. Low maintenance cost as well. Also, the turbine is cheaper and more than supercharger in the market especially in chop shop. Thats why Im going for turbo.
Weikee: above points is just my lima sen, bro, no offense :D

for my ceffy, I had replace my battery to my rear boot, letting more space for the turbine and piping. But as stated, very headache since the piston size between these engines vary eventhough it bear the same series... DET piston is bigger (93mm) than DE (90mm)... and of course the stroke for DET is shorter.....so no choice to swap the piston into DE. also dunno whether the block is fit or not.... headache!! headache!!

weikee: i think 190hp for MEVI is on wheel right?? as stated here
