3S GZE Options

[macavely]

well i know this has been talked about before.. but it has been a while.. and just wondering if anyone has seen it done yet... or is planning on doing it soon.... if i lived in a perfect world my gt would have a 3s ge engine in it... and i would be putting a vortech supercharger in it.... 3s should handle the extra power well... but if i or anyone in my family wins the lotto u know what i will be doing....

3S GE Black top with vortech supercharger...

I think he should save himself some trouble by putting in a Redtop instead.

I'm not stomping on his dream. He can still do it, it's possible. But I think he would be better off with a Redtop BEAMS 3S-GE. Think about it like this:

1. He gets a Blacktop BEAMS 3S-GE
2. Has to change out the intake and exhaust manifolds and might have some oil issues. Also the wiring is going to be more of a pain in the ass because the wiring is for a Altezza.
3. Then needs to install the S/C.

Now if he gets a Redtop 3S-GE:
1. Gets the engine
2. Doesn't need to change out the intake and exhaust manifolds because they're already meant for FWD application. And since the Redtop 3S-GE came in a Celica, the wiring wouldn't be much of a hassle compared to a Blacktop.
3. Then install the S/C.

What I want to know is, why the Blacktop? What is so wrong with the Redtop? Is it just because the Blacktop has Dual VVT-i? Or is it because it makes 10 more PS? Explain that please.
