For the beams, you'll can use the tranny that comes with it (as long as it's coming from the ss3 celica), or i think u can use the celica gt tranny. im not sure if theyre the same. for the blacktop, u can use the tranny that comes with the levin, or im sure you can use the st's manual tranny also. c52, i think. and same with silver. best to turbocharge, silvertop, but you'd have to run really really low boost or put low comp pistons and god knows wat else to make it run porperly. to be honest, those engines are all meant to be NA... their compression ratios are all either 10.5:1 or above. not ideal for turboing. if u really want to turbo, i'd get the 3sgte, which is basically a beams with low comp pistons and a turbo. or a 4agze and remove the SC and put a turbo in, which is what mosst people in the 4a community do. or, turbo your 7a, but then again, im sure ventually you'll want more power. that tends to happen with a lot of the 7afte guys since that motor really has its limits, mainly cuz of head design. so i'd do a little more research. im getting a beams or blacktop in june and im leaving it NA and just doing headers intake exhaust. id love a turbo but its more maintenance. hope that helps. i might not be 100% on everything here, so dont quote me. lol.
