After reading the big topic on celica.net Im almost convinced on the supercharged 5s. "Go with the 3s blah blah blah". NO, anywho the rippmods sounds pretty awesome. Unlike the fabled 3s.. you get all NEW parts and direct plug and play. So if your even contemplating the do a swap reply, in your upper left hand hand corner of your screen is a "Back" button go ahead an press it. SC 5sfe at 190whp out of a box is pretty awesome.

That's a very good point. I used to kind of be all for the swaps like many people here, though I was open to turbocharging or supercharging the 7A-FE or 5S-FE. My response to people asking to swap or turbocharge was usually to swap, but if someone was intent on turbocharging their stock motor, I wasn't against it. Now, more than ever, I'm leaning the other way. I know not everyone has the nightmarishly-horrible experience that I'm experiencing or John is experiencing or Ray is experiencing, but the truth is, sometimes a swap is just not worth it. I'll be without my car for over half of a year, maybe more. Right now, I'm really wishing I'd have turbocharged the 7A-FE or left it stock, or something...anything. I'd rather have a turbocharged 7A-FE than my bmx bike. -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...
