I have spent some time on a mr2 forum and found that some of them are switching out their 5sfe for a 1mzfe. For those who don't know this is the v6 engine that has been in the camry. From what I've read, in an mr2 this swap can be done as cheaply or cheaper than a 3sgte. Weight difference is about the same between a 3sgte and 1mzfe, so bad balance isn't too much on an issue. This engine will have about 200 HP. And TRD makes a supercharger for it. It looks to me to be a pretty attractive idea for those who like the N/A powerband better than the turbo and don't like the lag. Mabey there is something I missed. Is there something thats makes this swap impossible for celicas?

We have talked about this alot down at the shop and alot of them them want to put a v6 in my car, I really dont want too but mabey another celi some day.
From what Ive looked into to stay legal anyways is gettin a 97+ lower millege wrecked, or clip USDM Camry/Solara, then you have everything you need. DTE -------------------- I am a thief.
