Ok so im wondering, what is the Smallest (thats still useful) turbo sold today. Is there any turbos that would work with a 110 cc 4 stroke engine? I was thinking maybe a single 9b but that may still be a little big. Any ideas?

Just use the one off your car.
I've seen turbos the size of a grape fruit here at work. We use them on some of our diesel engines. They're probably around 1,000 cc's or so. I don't really work on that stuff though. If you're really interested, I can see if I can find some more specs on them.
I don't think you will find anything small enough. Garrett makes a GT10 that is meant for 500cc engines. That is the closest I could find.

the ko3 turbo is pretty small
some old volvo turbo's might work aswell.

The GT10 will do for that.
I would look into model aircraft things aswell. I know that some R/C aircraft use turbos or superchargers.

Rc aircraft turbos might be too small for this application. At least im getting 2 of these so if i blow this one up ill have a backup N/A one. LOL
Do i really need an intercooler or not?
Here are the problems im seeing with this setup... Finding the right turbo application, Fitting everything in there, fuel?, Spooling the turbo, finding a small enought BOV, keeping the front tire on the ground under boost, fighting off all the chicks once they see me riding this bad boy. LOL

Look into Hitachi, I have seen a few apps they have that are very small displacement.

and the final question is, Do you think this will work? I know the best way to find out is to just try it. but does this seem physically possible to do.
