ya well it depends if your a fan of n/a or turbo. yes 169 whp will be produced with a beams while maybe 225 whp will be produced with a 3sgte.

if you want to beat hondas then yes 3sgte is defintaly the way to go, but you can still beat honda's with the redtop if you decide to drop some weight off the celica. Stock american ITR weighs 2600 lbs the same as a gt celica, so it would be a pretty close race. 195 vs 197 hp celica.
