Hi I have a st204 Celica with 5fse engine and am wanting o turbo it. I have read 1bwilson's and Shid's posts on turboing a 5sfe and list of components needed and this seems to be the best way to go. In my neck of the woods CT26 turbos are hard to come by, T3/T4 turbo is easier to sourc.e My question is what T3/T4 do I need and other than a CT26-T3/T4 adaptor is there anything else I need. I live in Australia so Mustangs and other American cars are not common here but plenty of Japanese sources. Thanks

Wow, is megasquirt only 12x12?? f**k that my power fc is 20x20 and i find that not enough.

also I find GT28* series turbos exhaust side too small, I made a huge mistake in choosing one. Would recommend GT3071R with the small option rear housing instead

Megasquirt is 16x16 if it's a Megasquirt-III, both for fuel and ignition maps. Megasquirt-I isn't worth the time or money.
I found that to be more than enough in my case. Given the price of the Megasquirt-II, the unit is more than worth it for a project like a 5S-FE turbo setup.

@OP: Regardless of what turbo setup or whatever you will need this:



The Megasquirt-II loves the stock sensor and (36-2) trigger wheel.

As for the turbo I would get the t3/t4 because of the availability and ease of repair/rebuild when it's needed.

The 98+ block isn't necessary as presure2 said BUT, if you can afford it I'd build that instead mainly because your engine I assume is running alright. I would just build another engine and keep yours stored in case of emergency.

Aside from that, the newer 98+ SHOULD bring everything you need (oil pump, crank angle sensor, timing gear with trigger wheel and both coil packs for a wasted spark ignition.
