Ok. I've got a 97 celica with the 7a-fe engine. It's a high milage engine, but it was been taken care of since birth.. haha. Anyway, I earn for more power but don't have the resorces or time for a 3s-gte swap. On the other hand, turbocharging is a very reasonable idea.. My question concerns the strength of the 7a internals. How much boost can they handle? Would it be a good idea to rebuild the engine with forged internals before turbocharging? What would be the best way to supply the extra needed fuel for the boost? Thanx for any help, I'm a little new with the aftermarket.

Ok fellas. Thankx for all the help. I just had one more question. I know that a lot of people on this board don't like the idea of nitrous. I was never partial to n2o myself.. but the big question is why? If the 7a-fe can handle 8psi reliably, then why not a 50-shot of nitrous? It's about the same hp gain isn't it? From what I read, the rods and crank are the weak points of the engine.. but wouldn't those parts be under the same pressure with n2o as they would with 8psi? Thanks
