So I've been playing with the idea of going turbo with my 5sfe, or swapping for a 3sgte. I found a totaled all-trac which would have been perfect for either one, but after many failed attempts at trying to contact the man selling it I decided to give up on that I found a supra turbo, I was just looking for some opinions on whether or not I should get a supra turbo or just turbo my celi.

If you're looking at a MK3 then scrap the idea and get a Lexus SC300 instead with a bunch of miles for dirt cheap. Has a 2jz, Supra suspension parts are compatible, and you could very easily swap for a turbo 2jz or turbo the motor yourself. It doesn't have the "oh holy crap it's a Supra" status but you'll have a damn nice car, and if you put some work into it will be a sweet sleeper.

Exactly! SC300! That is what I am considering right now for next car, next project while I save up and order front & rear clip for this car and begin the swap so I still have something to drive. You can get them cheap as hell too!
