Put the turbo beside the engine, and the clutch behind it.

Ahhh not so quick...engine in Jazz is E/W so turbo behind (maybe in front) it and clutch at side!

You have much to learn grasshopper!

Now..apart from that...I have no Idea maybe CAPA or Turbotech. Also look over in the OZHonda forum?

What I want to know is why?

need more power but love the way the little car parks in town and its cheap to run. GT3 is to hard to park without getting someone running keys down it or the ute is to long

Turbo in a Jazz ..!!! Yeah right !!
( Hey watch this ...!! > BANG < )
You'll need to do quite a bit more than just chuck a turbo at it, intercooler, piping, new turbo compliant ECU, AFM, lowered compression. Will the drive train cope ?

I know, I got three turbed cars, it ain't that easy.

Perhaps Sir would consider a Rootes type supercharger with maybe 0.5-0.7 bar overpressure? No throttle lag, kinder to your engine (less heat).
Good noise.

Whichever type of warp-drive you choose, you'll also need to beef-up the front suspension and steering and possibly the rear as well, if you don't want it hopping around like a pig on skates.
Sounds fun tho'.
Nothing like big power in little cars.

An NSX sounds easier!
