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.

Ok, so use the ECU from the gze and just run a piggyback on it. Sounds simple enough...
Since you seem like you have a pretty extensive knowledge into this subject field and I have you at my disposal, how much boost could the stock engine handle using a fmic and what kind of power do you suspect can be attained from running such a setup (with proper tuning)? Anybody else that knows anything about this is welcome to buzz in. Just remember to keep your answers in the form of a question. I like rhetoric.

I don't speculate too much... but do consider this is a 1.6 liter. I would imagine the stock bottom-end could handle around 15psi and make around 250 horsepower.
