I was wondering what would be an estimated cost to perform an engine swap on my FWD 96 Celica GT ? I know majority of the 3sgte utilize an AWD celica but how could I drop a turbocharged engine into my FWD celica without converting to an AWD. And what engine would I need to consider investing into ? Has this been done before ? Can I use a MR2 engine and if so how ? Please explain with great detail and prices and what materials I would need.

Thanks

please excuse the bluntness as I can see you are new here, but if you plan to do an engine swap, I would suggest you do some research on the forum as the topic is covered VERY widely and extensively
