Alright my father in law found a Toyota CT-26 Turbo in almost new condition and I am wanting to install it in my 5sfe celica and I was wondering if I really need to swap the head and go 5sgte? Or is it possible in low boost (about 4-9) applications, because if so in theory all I would have to is get a manifold made and then the normal turbo stuff; wastegate, intercoolers, oil lines, oil pan, 315 green injectors, etc.
Has anyone seen it done or done it themselves? This post has been edited by Poonicus: Dec 27, 2013 - 11:20 PM -------------------- "As a professor of science, I assure you we did, in fact, evolve from filthy monkey-men." -Prof. Farnsworth

Generally it is cheaper, faster, and more reliable in the long run to just go 3sgte instead of fiddling with the 5sfe. yes, the 5S-FE ECU is not boost and piggyback friendly. Im running a boosted 5S right now trying several tuning methods. Right now im using the AEM FIC again to try and tune it. I think the ODBII ECU is just going to fight me too much. If you have a pre 96 car then it might be a little easier. That is one of the options im going to try. Re-pin the harness for a 94 ECU, however that also requires running more wires and changing distributor because they are different. Why don't you sell the FIC and go with Megasquirt. The DIYPNP I built for my car cost me about 500 bucks and has been nothing short of amazing. Id love to see someone install it on a 5sfe.
