Hi everybody! First of all, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
Anyway... I need more power... I've got a celica 2.0 GT coupe of '95 (as it written in my account) and I can't find anywhere a modified ecu for my car... Someone can tell me if there are some good ecu and which one is the best for it? Thanx men! |

Well, for European GT's with the 3SGE engine there are lots more performance parts available than there are for North American 5SFE engines. So you should have no problem finding a little extra power for your engine, whether you decide to use an ECU or piggyback fuel computer like the Apexi SAFC-II, intake, exhaust, header, a pulley, cam gears...or even go turbo if you really want lots of power. Just go to the parts database on this site and you'll find lots of parts listed for your model Celica.

Honestly, I don't think anything less than a Turbo/Supercharger is worth purchasing when it comes to modifying an engine. It's after the turbo that I'd do the other things.
same with body mods.. wheels first. |

Twist-R - go for a decent free flowing performance exhaust, De-cat if you can get away with it, Induction kit or get a CAI manufactured.
That's a start, then go for the Apexe SAFC fule computer to tune it up - this will ned expert advise/tuning. You could go down the forced induction/supercharger route but again this will be pricey.. Simmo (uk CCUK member) has his GT supercharged and it sounds fantastic... |
