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

Mate down at the wreckers has got a 5sfe out of a 98 Camry he'll sell to me for $220, the head is cactus but seeing as Im rebuilding its not going to cost me any more than if it was in good nick. Questions-can I drop the 98 eng. head and all straight in after rebuild and just change the ecu. I assume I have to to change the ecu cause of coil pack and crank sensor, il probably be running it unmodified for a while before I get Megasquirt and other stuff I need together.

No, u will use your stock ecu and accessories until you install the megasquirt.
The 96+ stuff requires obdII wiring to work properly.
You will just leave the crank sensor ect there, ready to use when u install the ms unit.

^Exactly. Leave the crank sensor installed and take off the coilpacks and put the distributor in place before putting on the megasquirt.

Your ECU works fine as long as you use all of your accessories and wiring harness on the new engine.
