Hey everyone, I'm (kinda) new here... i've got an o'l 94 st... 1.8 and i must say, i dont know what all has been done to it but its impressively fast, im aware of the emissions evap, headers, exhaust, eibach sport springs, short ram intake and the retarded huge 8.5mm wires pushing some ngk iridiums... but anyway, lets get to it... ive been conversating with a member on here about best routes and whats nots to go on the gt i just purchased from him (havent picked it up yet) but, i was wondering if there are any frankenstein builds for the 5s-fe or what exactly can be done with that motor, internals, boost ect... but my main concern as of now is the emissions. i cant really explain why it is a concern but i want it out of my car. does anyone know of an emissions delete for the 5s? or any work arounds for it i mean like ANYTHING? im in a po-dunk town of Lamesa Tx and i commute to Midland daily, so i mean, are there even any (active) members out there in my area? nice to meet you all and thanks so much for any advice, links or anything but most of all, thanks for the conversation!

v6's and 8's are being considered..... i also found this crazy gt4 swap and build that seemed right up my alley..... but on the same token too much of a headache trying to hunt for parts... so, for the ST ive thought up a weird swap... an 87 volvo 240 dl swap, rear end, trans and 2.3 cast iron motor. boost on it all day with little to no hassle and rwd as opposed to fwd..... more or less.... i want a retarded fast and somewhat agile v8 killer. the 5sfte build is seeming to be the way to go (for now) it being a more common motor for me to find parts and in my area... so ultimately no decisions have been made and im still really up in the air about it, but the end goal is like i said a v8 killer but i want to keep it as "toyota" as possible... i dont know of nor have i found threads for anything on a v6 swap. i had an old 80's model 2dr corolla that was rwd but it never ran and i didnt have time to devote to it and my buddy ended up t-boning it at 45mph... but it was a platform i would have liked to work with... anyone know of like a rwd swap? minus my stupid volvo idea (although the wheelbases, length and mounts are pretty feasible) anywho... i have two of them and i want one to be hitting the local drag strip and really putting it down or holding its own so any ideas or info for this crazy plot of mine? people have suggested the beams swap, but it just doesnt seem right and a little too "honda-ish" for me.
