Hey, sorry if this sounds kinda stupid, but I have a 94 Celica, 1.8L (7AFE) and I want to add a turbo to it and make it somewhat faster. I saw a Garrett Turbo Charger for sale on Ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Garrett-Tur...sspagenameZWDVW and I asked the seller if it would fit and if I would need anything else to install this. He said "Yes this turbo will work great. You will need the plumbing to complete the conversion." Now I dont know what that is (the plumbing) so I was wondering if anyone can inform me on what that is, and if he's right about that being all I need. If anything else is needed, what is it? Im not planning on doing this myself, I plan on taking it to a shop, but I want to get all the parts needed before I take it. Thanks in advance for any of you taking the time to help me out.

haha. gee where did you get that from..?!?
Starting with a good genuine Garrett turbo is a great start for a 7AFTE. Look into the oil restrictor fitting for the turbo as not to create alot of smoking and seal issues down the line....trd94 mentioned that, its pretty important to get the feed/return right to the turbo. The absolute key to life of the 7AFTE, or turboing any motor for that matter, is getting as close to perfect fueling and timing as possible. Good luck.
