alright, I've seen alot of people say that a 5sfte set-up could be done for like $1500-1600. but everytime I sit and try to calculate a cost, I end up over $2500... could someone possibly tell me how much it typically costs for a 5sfte turbo kit? here's what I figure:

3sgte stuff (turbo, manifold, downpipe, oil pan, map sensor, oil lines) $300-400
injectors $300-400
fuel pump $100
FMIC (including all pipes, couplers, clamps) $300-500
gauges $150-200
SAFC+BTM/emanage ultimate $600
BOV $150-200
exhaust $200-300

for a total cost of $2100-2700. abd that's before any dyno tuning! is there no cheaper way to do a 5sfte?

then, i started looking for parts:
3s exhaust manifold, ct-26 turbo, oil hard lines, elbow and primary cat (also known as a downpipe), if your not planning on getting a aftermarket downpipe. also the oil pan and 2bar map sensor.

hi, i got a 5th gen 5SFE that i turbo'd, i know i know 5gen etc whatever, same engine and i too did ALOT of research.....

welded up my own manifold because i was just not impressed with the burien/OEM turbo manifold.
i use a Schwitzer t3-ish turbo, found on saabs for the most part....
Supra MK4 NA injectors, non-California spec....i dont live in the USA anyways, these suckers spray about 550cc (!) Call the friendly guys at burien toyota for the part number, i always forget to stash it in a word-document in my computer......23250-46xxx i think it is
SW20 MAP sensor.
TRE-Performance 255LPH fuel pump.

Stock ECU does fine with this MAP sensor/Injector set up. No freak-outs on the timing at all. From what i hear from the local toyota dealer (i befriended some of the Mech's after i stunned them with my build...) they told me the 3S & 5S ECU's are practically the same unit, the MAP signal on both ECU's is designed to read boost as well, AS LONG AS IT COMES FROM THE RIGHT type of MAP sensor. Non turbo MAP sensor freaks out with boost, doing the check-valve trick doesn't really cut it correctly, plus the signal it sends is always off by a few tenths of a volt. SW20 MAP sensor & Supra Injectors are the way to go.

puretone,
i actually am using the 2bar map, just out of a alltrac instead of a mr2, same unit tho.

QUOTE(puretone)
oh ha! i was looking at your pics, i still need to figure this forum out, i musta been looking at your older pics of what seemed to look like the old MAP sensor & 300cc injectors.

yeah the 2bar SW20 MAP sensor is the way to go....alltrac 2bar MAP is the *same* thing, altho its listed with a slightly different part number in the Toyota micro-fiches, i dont get why.


I grabbed these quotes from presure2's big 5sfte post. hope it helps.
