Hey everyone, I am new to the site, and am looking for any info on turbocharging my 95 Celica convertible. I don't want to go crazy, just push around 9-10 psi. I had read an article on turbocharging the 5sfe using mostly 3s-gte factory turbo parts. But wasn't sure if that setup would work specifically in my car. I am at the research stage and am trying to get all the info I can!! Can my car handle to boost safely? Recommended setups? Any info or recommendations would be great...thanks in advance for the help!

when I boosted my 5S-FE with a ST185 manifold and CT26 with a custom FMIC setup, i think i made 200 HP and about 180 something torque. that was with about 11psi. I was using an AEM FIC for management.

Then I upgraded to my 3MZ V6 and i wouldnt have it any other way. the GF has a 3rd gen in her car and i still prefer the V6
