I thought that the swift had a four cylinder engine - and that the el-cheapo "Geo" was the one fitted with the three (of less than one liter's displacement no less)

The swift grew out of the Chevy Sprint (also made by Suzuki).

In 1986/87 they offered it with a turbocharger. At the time, it as a .9 liter 3 cylinder running 7-9 psi of boost for close to 100 HP. Car weighs about 1600 lbs.

You can get a lot of info here:

A white '87 happens to be my daily driver
