nope sold it to streetracing10psi on here i do have extra 2.5 inch intercooler piping as for the t3 question just depends on what your going to do with car and your power goals. Also what internal mods are you going to do?

^everything possible. lol.i just want to turbo the 7a i have now and have another 7a on the side being built by my friend. i wish i could go gte but i dunno, i feel like itll get too complicated and whatnot. so im probably going to keep the fe head and just build the internals up and the goal is to have one heck of a 7afte. i want it to be the most powerful 7afte ever! bwahhahaahha. but yeah, i just want to have the turbo ready so that i wont have to get another one when the time comes. so i want to have a the best t3 possible and proabbly will end up just going t3t4. who kows. im just looking around. reading everything i can(not to kiss ass or anything but most of it is the sh!t you write about here on the forums).

well get all the parts i have in that pic and slap them on your 7afte and low boost it for a little while to make sure everything is good to go then go hog wild if you want

sounds like a plan! lol. is there anything better than the 60 trim? if not bro, im just going with the t3t4. there'll be some lag im sure but whatever. it'll be good when i move on to the built 7a cuz im sure i can run higher boost safely than i could on a t3. what kinda injectors was it that u used for the 7a? with the green things... and i wanted to use something other than the walhbro one cuz faq told me its a bit loud.

wow more research my friend...and learn how to do compressor maps and calculate your CFM ect...

the T3T4 is NOT the turbo for you and has HUGE lag....

T3 super 60 is the trim of T3 i would go with (i calculated my engine volume around 1.9L (bored cylinders) instead of 1.8L) and nearly up to 20+psi

anything above this is really overkill on a 7afte

and if your building your 7afe, you might want to consider opening it up with a port and polish, oversized valves and a angle job

first off, heres a great site to learn basic turbo facts and terminology
turbo info. especially read turbotech 101/102/103. make sure you do your own research before buying. ive been researching all the components for my kit for quite a while to best avoid complications later on. its important to learn yourself in my opinion than ask other people what to do. also about swapping the gze in later, if i remember right, wont be able to use st manual tranny without modification due to flywheel differences between 7afe and 4agze (gze's is larger diameter and is 8-pin as opposed to 6 pin if i remember right). 200000 miles? good luck man, only reason im not swapping yet is because i only have like 45k. figured id kick its a** before i swap . have you seen the video of oobe's auto 7afte? not too shabby

What are the power gains from adding a turbo to the 7A, I had a 7A and swapped it for a 3SGE for a 60 BHP upgrade i am still smiling and i believe the amount of work versus power was well worth it.

Kev

here you go, doggy's 7afte at 214 crank hp and doggy's 7afte vids and pics. very impressive. and heres 170 hp and 180 trq at 9.5 psi posted by niks old 7afte setup nik's 7afte

and if you do the math 170 whp +15% tranny loss = 200 crank horse that was untuned and i still got 30 mpg on the highway staying out of boost most the time

the car put down only 95 whp with no turbo so thats a gain of 75 whp

but the 3sge is na power and probably around 160whp

teh 7afte is just a stepping stone and is a fun cheap way to get power out of the ST celica then you can go on to a 3sgte swap or 7agte or what ever you want to do
