272s give you a very rough idle so its not worth the cons if he still has the 5s head, 272s in a 3s head might be more productive and worth the consiquences.

the problem with web cam regrinds is that they've been designe for NA applications. Use in a turbo motor will probably hinder it performance. I don't know the specs on them, but I'm assuming there will be too much overlap. Something you may wanna look into before you start blowing wasting your money.

It's a completely different set up sadly. I asked that same question about a year ago. Honestly, all you have to do is look at the heads on each of them and you'll see there's not much chance in making it work. I see that you've got a nice turbo set up, but your still wanting more power. When do you think that will end? Do you think getting a set of performance cams is going to satisfy you? Consider this, and the option of going with a 3s head. With the 2.2 liter block, and a 3s head, it's like a big bore 3s. You've got real room to grow with that. -------------------- Live Free, Be Happy

Adding the cooler didnt really change anything much.....
but having no cool sure made the boost come on real quick.... I had the cooler made and fitted for two week before the engine went boom, but for the two week it ran like a wild thing..... i have a lot of hope for my 5sgte build... predictions anybody on what ill have when its finnished..????? -------------------- 312whp with more to come.... |

As for boost im gonna push this bitch as hard as i can go... The ports on the head are huge now.....the valves have been cut back for flow....sooooooooo im looking for big HP...Bigger turbo mmmm yeah later as the cash flow is running low....im way over budget as it is....the head alone cost me $$$$ I dont know what the prices in the U.S are like but i can tell you the my back pocket hurts like hell. -------------------- 312whp with more to come.... |

you won't have the first 5s-gte in a 6th gen period. Because there is a drag celi that's rear wheel drive - and it has a 5s-gte. But, you will have the first 5s-gte in a street driven celi (i think)

I am sure what I saw It was a NDRA car PRO RWD class. I got a vid of it, the car ran 8:3.2 then broke somthing...
the biggest part in the 5sGTE is to get the crank to fit 3S rods only $350...

I don't even know of another 5s-gte celica in the U.S. other than the RWD drag car So i expect you would be the first 5s-gte on this celica forum..... congrats! NOW GET TO WORK... lol

Little things like new water and oil pumps never seem to come into mine when your looking at pistons and rods.... Good luck on your journey to the world of 5sgte. Keep on it.... I will keep you guys updated on the progress as it happens...Its been a little slow the past few weeks due to the Xmas break.... -------------------- 312whp with more to come.... |

267? 272? You guys are slightly nuts. I'd never throw that agressive of a cam on a 5S unless you want to make max power at like 10,000rpms, which the block isn't designed to do at all.
I'd go with something milder like 9mm of lift and 235 duration. At least that's what I'm gonna shoot for in a few weeks. My friend does cam regrinds... I guess he'd know more about it than me. edit: I didn't realize there was four pages to this thread before I posted. Looks like you're in good shape. Carry on.

Well guys, yesterday was the day... My baby went tp the tuner. Its taken a year this week to get it as far as it is today. All custom work has been done (fingers crossed that is) so its just a few off the shelf parts now like MSD coil and leads and stuff like that... not alot........
Here are a few pics from yesterday:
