take a look @ my thread for the 4afte. same stuff can be transfered over to the 7afte while (probably) creating decent power.
-------------------- the 1/4 doesnt have patience for a ST.... so we make them ST-T's so atleast we'll sound good going slow.

Unless she is willing to be under the hood helping you fix it or tweak the setup on a regular basis, don't do it. All the famed Toyota reliability goes out the window after you put a turbo on the motor. Even if the motor doesn't blow (which it won't if you design the turbo kit right), you will still be constantly working on the car.

It's never ending maintenance. Trust me, i've been boosted for a couple of years now, and i'm still swapping broken parts and tinkering.
