Needed input, 7age vs 1mzfe Options

[Einhander]

Ok, over the past few months i've been gathering parts for a 1mzfe swap. I finally have everything But the ecu, but that's not a big deal. I know the motor will fit, that's not the issue. And i don't want to make huge power 280-300hp at the most.

But here's the delima, i have everything for the 4age head converison. I would like eventually to go turbo and the 1m is not going to leave a lot of room for this, unless i go crazy on the engine bay, and piping will be a pita. Plus the turbo 7age has already been done and has sources for reliabilty, where as the 1m really is not a heavily document motor as to it's abilities.

Now my question to you guys is if given a choice, with a goal of 300hp which would you choose?


this is something i am going to complete over time, since the celica is no longer a dd, and i work almost continously, hopefully by late summer it'll be done.

hey Fallen

i think 250 whp is a streetable application
but now are you talking about the motor or power out put?
the 3sgte guys are running around close to 220 -250 whp
my turbo 7afe is only 170whp and 180 trq with better injectors it can push in the 200 and still be streetable
