Where would I get the JUN parts. I am in the process of doing the 3S-GTE swap and the AWD conversion. Can you list some parts that I will need to prduce some high power ratings. I want more than the 255hp that the engine is rated. Maybe somewhere around 500+hp if that is possible. I know that I could get high power at real high boost but I want to be safe and I want to keep the engine for the drive home. Here is what I have already:
Suspension: Centerline 17x8.0 rims. Toyo Proxes RA1. C-One GT-4 Coilovers. Suspension Techniques front and rear sway bars, TRD front and rear strut bars, TRD Sway Bar Bushing set.
Engine/Performance: Magnacore wires, I do have a T-78 turbo from a wrecked Supra. I have a HKS intercooler that is made for an eclipse. I figure that that will work fine. Maybe a little custom piping will have to be done. That's about it for the engine. I know that I will need a new ignition and fuel pump/regulator. Anything Else?

thanks, would the greddy SP exhaust be good? Right now I have 2.25" exhaust with a veilside teardrop muffler. I don't think that that is gonna work. So once again is the SP exhaust good?

The veil side will do.

What is the size of the muffler?

Thanks jayi12-15psi

I have more links but my main interest now is to generate more wanna bees for more info.

Your setup sounds good. But where are you right now? is the car down?

Have you gone into the engine yet? Are you willing to spend money to go the right way without looking back or do you want a rush job with complications is the future igotta5S-FEturbo?

Have you also look at the problems with making 500HP at the flywheel or tire?

Read my original or first post again and see what you need and then come back and ask away.

Also, try to see if you can get a veilside, HKS, Greddy, Jun turbo manifold for your 3rd generation 3SGTE. That will lessen your worries on putting together one unless you can weld some custom pieces of angular pipes together.

If your exhaust is 3inches in size, then you should upgrade your piping from the header to 2.5 - 3.0" for better flow.

You also have a pretty big turbo there. Expect some lag to some point. This can be reduce with a complete:

JUN SPROCKET (1033M-T702)
JUN CAMSHAFT KIT (1033M-T005)
JUN STROKER KIT (1029M-T003)

Again read my posts for further details.

Looking forward to your update on my gquestions above.

P.S. Finishing touches for a 3SGE + Turbo = 3SGTE

I am definitely not going to rush into this. I have had my 5S-FE out for a week now and the only new thing that I have intstalled is the C-One Coilover all around. Also the gt-4 front and rear axles, and brake assemblies. I am going to replace all the hoses, gaskets, brackets, etc, before I put the engine in. Also I would like to replace the cams, lifters, rods, pistons, head gasket, valve springs, and polish the cylinder walls themselves. That will be next week. Also do you have a part # for the HKS turbo manifold. And how would I reduce lag? Just by adding these parts: JUN SPROCKET (1033M-T702)
JUN CAMSHAFT KIT (1033M-T005)
JUN STROKER KIT (1029M-T003) That probably wouldn't reduce it all but it would help a lot right?

Those mods will allow more air to flow into the big turbo.

You will move from a 2.0l to 2.2l engine with 264+ degree cams allowing more air into the cyclinder, allowing the engine to breath better. You should stay below 272 degree cams for streetability.

In all, your engine will be moving more air, more energy. >>> better turbo spool up.

What is your application? Street, Street/race, little street/alot of Race?

Please check out JUN for the kits.

Kits provides:-

JUN STROKER KIT (1029M-T003) 87.0x92.0mm contains:
http://www.junauto.co.jp/products/cylinder...t/index.html?en

FULL COUNTER CRANKSHAFT 1
JUN'S SUPER PISTON KIT 1 SET
JUN'S SUPER CONNECTING RODS 1 SET


JUN CAMSHAFT KIT (1033M-T005) contains:
http://www.junauto.co.jp/products/cylinder...t/index.html?en

STAGE 2

CAMSHAFT 1 SET
RACING VALVE SPRING 1 SET
TITANIUM VALVE RETAINER 1 SET


JUN Racing Valve Guide (1008M-T002)

All that you have to worry about is the vavles which can be provided by Fearra

Do a search on a TRD turbo manifold for the 3sgte. Your manifold outlet might change depending on the turbo exhaust housing intake.

Also, please recheck my post below with part #'s updates for some important stuff

my application is a lot of street a little race, BUT I hate it when the souped up firebirds and camaros and vettes around here pass me on the interstate when I go to work and even with the turbo I get beaten. So I need something that will anialate all. Civics and integras are no problem now but I gotta beat the V8. I checked out the JUN website and placed an order for the camshaft stage 2 kit. What are those things that are in the option thing? Oh, and I almost forgot what is the best clutch that I should get? ACT or centerforce? Or neither. West minst you are a pretty smart guy and thanks for all of your help.

Heres go.

Trek sits behind his wheel waiting for it to all happen.

He peers at the line in the distance, what a quater!

He settled into the seat as his hands grips the wheel while his eye focus on the treeek faced before him.

His heart rotates around the confine limits of its quarters.

His chest rises as he tunnelled his vision sets to the green lanterns.

With a rush, his A/F when rich!

His boost at 2.

Without warning, he shifts to 2nd. His eyes wide open; not wanting to blink

100feet out of the locks, he see nothing as a flame shootup. High up.

All around him is fire as he is stuck deep into his seat with no back.

A light flashing before him. Beep, beeep, beeeep, beeeeeeep 4bar!! confused.gif mad.gif

Matt

Matt? you must read everything.

Are you changing your computer or are you going piggy back?

If piggy back, you will need the HKS VPC to change to speed density since you maybe using 272 degree cams.

I think that it is better to go with a motec 48 or a Autronic SM2. Check my link paths on this page and review both products. It is better to go with them than with all the piggy backs which will cost the same money, but hard to use since you have more than one device to change parameters.

All parameters can be control with these computers via a laptop under the seat.

The option is for the cam gear. You have either the option to get the JUN or HKS cam gears or sprockets as they are named. I like the HKS cam sprocket over JUN, but JUN looks lighter.

The kit you order contains which cams? 264 or 272 degree cams?

Will you order Stroker kit and the Valve guide kit?

You have a number of choices for the clutch. Check my mod list posted before.

You should have a list of all what you need, part numbers, where you going to by them and so on.

TRD, Toda Racing, HKS, JUN, ACT, Centerforce can be use for your clutch. Just chose one on quality and price. But you have to verify each manufacture if there have a clutch for the Celica GTFour. It maybe possible that a MR2 clutch can fit the GTfour but I do not know since one the MR2 is RWD while the GTFOUR is AWD.

Also, the 90-94 GTFOUR transmission might be the same. Check this out with NEVERSTOP or any other person.

TRD should definately have one. Checkout http://www.fensport.co.uk/partsfiles/st205clutch.htm for clutch kit

Are you using a carbon fibre drive shaft for the rear axle?

i think that this topic should be renamed. i had the impression upon entering it that it was going to be a discussion of 7afte or 5sfte, not building up a 3sgte.

also, i fail to see how an Apexi rev/speed meter (among other things) are a required part for a turbo project. that doesn't do anything other than display status information.

sorry, i'm not attacking anyone, i just don't see how a laundry list of 3sgte parts is going to help anyone get together a "Do-IT-Youself" turbo project.

The first pag is strictly for any vehicle since it have some major parts added for turbocharging any vehicle.

If you have continue to read the pages, you would see that it is not for the faint hearted unless you took your car to a shop.

I am amaze each time when someone who have ideas about turbocharging their ride do not know the reason why.

All that you hear is "do I really need that", "what is that for", "why"

Come on people. This is not to affend anyone.

It is easier to find GT & ST parts than for the 3SGTE parts. eg, clutch and so forth.

One last question for you Charlie97L, are you one of those person who does things without knowing what the result would be? In other words, just do?

it will be nice to here your input.

The first pag is strictly for any vehicle since it have some major parts added for turbocharging any vehicle.

If you have continue to read the pages, you would see that it is not for the faint hearted unless you took your car to a shop.

I am amaze each time when someone who have ideas about turbocharging their ride do not know the reason why.

All that you hear is "do I really need that", "what is that for", "why"

Come on people. This is not to affend anyone.

It is easier to find GT & ST parts than for the 3SGTE parts. eg, clutch and so forth.

One last question for you Charlie97L, are you one of those person who does things without knowing what the result would be? In other words, just do?

it will be nice to here your input.

i wouldn't call charlie out...he knows his shxt west...i wouldn't fxck w/ him...just my .02cents. i talk to him on AIM all the time, and he's who i go to for most questions when there's somethin complicated i can't figure out. he was in the process of building a 7agte, and yes, he knew why and what to do...so think before you call some people out.

no, not at all, i alwasy exhaustively research every mod i do to my car before attempting it. i totally respect the work you are doing and the information you are giving, and i understand your points about the parts, they are all very good ones and you obviously know what you are talking about.

my point was that not everyone needs a 700 HP celica... it IS very tempting, and a hell of a project, but I think that most people looking for a turbo project just want some more oomph. i mean, look at me, I just want like 200 ish HP... that's all, I want to continue to drive my celica every day, i'm never going to race it. i just want it to be a little sportier, and be able to hang with GT-Ss, GS-Rs, etc. and really back up the sporty look we have on our cars.

i wasn't dismissing your post in any way, i just said that the title was misleading, and after further reading your stuff, i realized (DOH!) that you weren't implying the Rev/Speed meter and other stuff was necessary, just outlining all the available options for your car... so i most definitely concede that point. smile.gif

so basically, my point is, i was just saying the subject heading was a tad misleading... it's totally fine, i was just making an observation. and i guess what i would really like is a good simple list of what the bare minimum is to turbo your car. i know many people would like this info, and i'm probably going to start a new topic, and i would love for you to contribute to that. smile.gif

also, i have to say, i really enjoy the debates that go on over here on 6gc.net ... celica.net has lost some of that good discussion somewhere. smile.gif

Understand.

My aim wasn't to concentrate on the 3sgte by who ever comes, I answer.

As you can see, they is no one asking questions about the 5sfe or any other engine.

I agree on the 700HP after a request, but my first post tops it al for a simple setup.

I was ask for 500+ and I supplied info to that request.

No prob. I would love to contribute to your post. just drop me a person mail and I will see what I can add to it.

How is you 4AFTE going? Any oil temperature or leaking problems? how is the a/f going?

i think that this topic should be renamed.  i had the impression upon entering it that it was going to be a discussion of 7afte or 5sfte, not building up a 3sgte.

Sorry, i'm not attacking anyone, i just don't see how a laundry list of 3sgte parts is going to help anyone get together a "Do-IT-Youself" turbo project.

Charlie!

Please do not forget that the celica carries other engines beside the 7A & 5S.

Also, from my opinion here, alot of guys do not even know what part to get or parts they need.

You maybe right on the subject.

I believe a detail description is need now on setting up the stuff on the car.

The name is already there. Do you think we should start a write up now on how to do it?

There are so many 3SGTE post on the site.

actually, right now, i'm workin on a 7afte, turbocharging the ST engine in my 97. i decided to wait on a swap because my current engine only has 68K on it. so, i'm going to start on this as soon as i can get the $$ together, and i'm going to see what i can do about doing a writeup on it.

i don't anticipate any leakage problems with the turbo setup. i am planning on getting a SAFC and setting back my timing 5 degrees to help with the a/f ratios.... so we'll see how that goes. smile.gif i'm going to start the thread tomorrow, and anyone who has any ideas should definitely check it out.

What you you thread be?

Turbocharging a 7AFE?

I think we should sub topic on this present thread insstead of creating a new one.

You write up can be the mail topic while all of page 1 & 2 can be a sub topic.

What do you think.

You see, I can say what to do, but to what level.

eg. how to make a turbo manifold from scratch or just put together a manifold, allow it to have some room without sharp bends?

Look forward to your response.
