Ok so I recently bought a Chevy cruze that came with the 1.4 ecotech turbocharged engine. And I was wondering if you could put a Chevy engine on the Celic. Obviously it's not something I plan on doing, but just wondering if that's something that could be done. From what I remember it has. 138 hp stock can't remember the torque but I see some hitting 200 with a good tune, intake, and exhaust. I figured this would be a cool project since everything seems like it would fit in a Celica.

Honestly an 1MZ swap would be better for a million reasons. Then you make some 200 hp and 214 ft lbs of torque out of the box, and best of all your Celica won't sound like the millions of bumbled bee imports on the roads today.
