So right now I'm debating on selling my celica for something quicker like a DSM or Vtec honda. But I really do enjoy the styling and intertior design of the 6g. The only problem is, it's a bit slow for my taste. I also hear when you sink about 3k into boosting a celica, you can only achieve 14s in the 1/4. So how much boost can a 5sfe handle on stock internals? And how hard is it to get faster then ohhhh...say a Z28?

I just finished boosting my 5sfe and I am dialing in on the dyno at 200hp and 258lbs of tq at the wheels at nine pounds of boost, on stock internals. It is safe on stock internals, you just need to make the appropriate upgrades. Follow the instructions on the thread to turbo the 5sfe, and you will think it was worth it if you do.
