can some please tell me how to do a forced induction? and can give any more information on how to increase horspower in a 2000 mits mirage 1.8L
 
U want cheap or expensive option?

Cheapest is transplant a GSR engine inside (4G93T). Expensive route can be of the following:

1. Maintain stock engine but with supercharging - refer to Raptor at http://www.raptorsc.com.au/Mitsikits.htm

2. Maintain stock engine but with bolt on turbo. This one need to do some R&D.

forced induction?

either using an air compressor driven mechanically, normally auxiliary drive belts; known as supercharge.

or,

air compressor driven by exhaust gas mounted at end of exhaust manifold; known as turbocharge.

the latter is more popular for huge leap in power, but engine internals must be capable of taking the ultra high pressures otherwise, pecah loh!

supercharger spins according to engine speed, and power delivery is almost linear like where a turbocarger can spins up to 100,000rpm hence the high forced induction power. lag is a problem, as well as heated air going into combustion. solve it by using air-to-air intercooler.
