I just loosly put that silicone hose, that rotates 360 of the compressor outlet, so can angle it around it.

The inlet will be tight! I never thought of that, was really tunnel visioned on the outlet and intercooler routing. I have marked in red where the outlet will be.

Turbocharging a lightweight effectively RWD vehicle like the Jimny should make for interesting driving!

Drive down a damp, leaf spattered lane, plant your toe, and watch the Jimny head for the nearest hedge/field/ditch like a demented clockwork toy

Having permanent 4wd would be a major advantage but it wouldn't be an easy modification to make.

It will be fine.
You control the rate at which you "find a ditch" with your right foot, it's simply adjustment of your driving style for the power available.
Plenty of vehicles about before the advent of traction control that had the ability to spin, it's just these days the gizmos to sort it all out for you so people get use driving against the carpet.
Carry on the good work, keep the pictures coming.

Cheers, its a silly project, will keep all updated though! I have seen a UK based company that sells a limited slip diff for around £700 if its to sketchy.
I decided that half a bar of boost will be safe as HKS sells a turbo kit for the swift m16a. Mine has a liana m16a, which has a more boost friendly compression ratio than that engine so wont be so knock limited whilst tuning.

That kit looks good as it appears to include everything that you need, including the ECU.

Has anyone ever managed to modify a Jimny to make it permanent 4wd for road use?

The subaru justy had a AWD model and used the suzuki g13b engine in some markets. People use them as a budget rally car
