You can't just say "fit"... shoot... I can "fit" a 1UZFE (4.0 V8) transversly into a 6th gen chassi (xT20x) and oddly enough... will probably bolt-up to the trannies that bolt up to S series motors... however... that's not the discussion here. Refer back to Doge's post on "fitment".
You'll lose quite a bit more than just 20hp... but that all depends on what you're looking for. The 5SFE will not be as tough as the 3SGTE... nor will it have as much potential... but like I said... it all depends on your power goals and situation. My opinion... if you can't do the swap yourself (minus the harness even)... and you don't have a lot of money to pay someone else to do it... don't do the 3SGTE. It'll just be a big money pool. The Burien turbo kit should be do-able with a bit of know-how you can leanr on this site and will not cost as much as a 3SGTE swap... but that's a give and take thing... -------------------- "It's ok to be naked girl...
