I know that the 3s-ge engine has a higher compression ratio than the 3s-gte (which I guess means that the pistons' head are thiner right?), but what does it change so that we can't (or shall not) turbocharge the 3s-ge?
Is it because it would (I don't know) be too much compressed exhaust gases for the turbo to hold? BTW: what does the last number in the compression ratio mean? (Like in 10:3:1) This post has been edited by dudeofchaos: Jun 26, 2011 - 10:51 PM |

Nope the NA 3rd gen 3sge doesent have squirters at all.....anywho are you going to swap the beams in, or the 3rd gen 3sge? I thought it was a beams though...anywho to stay on topic Edophus makes a good point. Everyone is assuming that you would keep the stock pistons, therefore limiting yourself to how mush boost you can run in a previously NA engine. Last time checked low-comp 3sgte pistons are easy to come by brand new and actually rather cheap. And if you wanted to, you could use the 3sgte pistons themselves if you had spare ones laying around.

i'm pretty sure na 3s-ge's do have oil squirters, any that i've seen do, i even thought the rev 2 3s-ge did not have them but having been shown some that do i beleive its only the 1st gen 3s-ge that does not have the squirters. It could differ from market to market though so i guess there is no guarentees.
anyway st205wrc you say you have an AT celica? then that would be the 7a-fe engine no? |
