There have been a few threads about this idea but nothing that was very informative/complete. I have an ST and I feel that for the power goal I have (250hp), the easiest on my wallet/brain would be fitting a turbo onto a 4A-GZE. I consider the s/c version because I have heard that stock internals can handle quite a bit of boost (12-14 psi iirc) which with the proper tuning could achieve 250.
But as I said, nothing on the site seems to give a lot of info on doing this modification and I'm not asking for a volley of information but if anybody knows of other sites or really anything that can offer more information on this it would be greatly appreciated. I always research things thoroughly before starting a project and I want as much as I can soak in. -------------------- "He won't come out of the bathroom.

I want to know what parts I will need like:
What kind of exhaust manifold will accept a turbo (what engine has one stock, does it need to be custom fab, do any performance companies make one) What kind of turbo(s) links up to said manifold Does the TB for the s/c accept the port for the turbo inlet Should I use the low CR 4agze or use the 20v and swap out for low CR pistons and rods Has anybody done this kind of work, if so, who -------------------- "He won't come out of the bathroom.
