Hey guys so I have a couple of questions first off what Would I need to turbo my 86 Celica. what do I need for engine management and also what do I get for the turbo kit.i saw couple of them on ebay but I'm not too sure or should I just get a engine with a turbo and just swap it in with my tranny also how much work would that be to install the harness on to my car are they different
Re I had to reply. It is _Not_ cheaper to buy a gte engine. Unless you find an engine from a friend of yours. It might be easier to install but usually hunger gets bigger by eating. My point is that once you get that 180hp gte installed to your gts, not long time you want more power. I bought parts for boosting my ge. Not ready yet, will report when done :lol
short list: gte ecu and harness and ignitor and afm and throttle body and idle control unit gte exhaust everything including turbo gte oil pan aftermarket oil cooler aftermarket radiator gte water lines gte tvis electronic valve gte vacuum hard line (under intake manifold) you have to modify the ge manifold to fit the gte throttle body aftermarket fmic gte fuel rail and injectors and regulator aftermarket high flow fuel pump fe transmission or the weird jdm ge transmission which has the starter usable on both sides...either of them you will destroy after a few launches fe clutch disk only if you use that trans you may have to swap the flywheel, there seems to be a bit of confusion with all the flywheels Toyota put on these that's the very short list. there are many more part you'll need if you can find all of that for less than the gte swap (you will still need a trans) if you have a 6 bolt main engine (only very few 3sge's have these) you should strongly consider NOT doing anything but a swap (even if to another ge) there is a reason all the people who know say just to get a whole swap. you are more than welcome to do it the hard way and spend 3x as much.
