With the Rootes supercharger going onto your Daihatsu, will you need get a new ECU programmed for the supercharger? (same question for a turbo) There doesnt seem to be much in the way of performance part upgrades for the Daihatsu's, or at least I'm not looking in the right places.

I rang a few mini parts places today and found a good 850 project car with very little rust, which will now form the basis for my daihatsu conversion.

There is a small rust hole in the left and right hand guard, and a small bit in the boot. The sills, a panels etc are all good thank god.

I will post pics in a month or so when I pick it up.
