Turbo charged 3S-Fe? Options

[Lil-Joe101]

Has anybody seen or heard of a Turbo charged 3s-Fe? I mean I've seen the a 5 s turbo charged and a gt turbo charged, but what about a 3s-Fe? Is it possible and what are the step to accomplishing this. The reason for the question is that I know the motor has a compression of 10:01. With a ratio that high, can it be done. Please post with some info. It would be greatly appreciated.

People are biased against them due to the fact they are held as economy minded engines, and when compared to the big brothers (3sge/3sgte) it seems lacking. Then again, much like the 5sfe users in the states, there are ppl who like to tune them, as much as those who like to tune and modify the 5sfe.

You gotta figure that in the states, where the 3sfe isnt offered in the 6th gen celicas, if someone wanted to mod their car/engine there options are either swapping in a more powerful engine, or making the best of the 5sfe. The same options are present for you over in Oki, yet with consideration to the fact, that if you wanted to swap in another engine, would you really bother swapping in a 5sfe from the states( something that is basically the same as the 3sfe?)? Thats the same dilemma that makes the 3sfe seem crappy to those over in america. Why bother. But you my friend have it, and seeing that you want to make it more than what it is, rather than choose to go the route of swapping in a 3sgte/4agze, you can gander to make as much horsepower as those who turbo charge their 5sfe here in the states.

Actually it should be easier for you being that you can source parts on the cheap!!!!


By the way, your motor looks nice man...did you paint your valve cover yourself? If so, its a nice job bro!
