Alright my father in law found a Toyota CT-26 Turbo in almost new condition and I am wanting to install it in my 5sfe celica and I was wondering if I really need to swap the head and go 5sgte? Or is it possible in low boost (about 4-9) applications, because if so in theory all I would have to is get a manifold made and then the normal turbo stuff; wastegate, intercoolers, oil lines, oil pan, 315 green injectors, etc.

Has anyone seen it done or done it themselves?

having done this (though with a 3sfe), would say brilliant way to get to know your engine and how to tune them, but if I was about to start again would do a 3sgte swap. DOn't regret it though smile.gif And prob will 3sgte it at some point, having learnt a lot.
