I had a Chance to pick up a wrecked MR2, which I took out the 3sgte, Tranny, and wiring harness in complete, for 1100$. I thought it was a pretty decent deal so I went with it.
I am picking up a 94 St pretty quick like and would like to swap. I want to make between 300-350hp ( like 350 at like 20psi or so). will this engine be able to withstand that easly? And Ive been told I would be better going with a 3rd Gen 3sgte, but I am not tryin to make insane HP, so I hope this one will work. Ive been talking to alot of people about this swap. I personaly dont want todo it myself or have someones "friend" do it, But I cant find a shop around here who feels like the could do it, or when talking to them they sound shady. So I am kinda at a Stand still, any thoughts or anything would be nice. DTE -------------------- I am a thief.
do not buy anything from me. |

there's atleast 30 difference's between the two engines (2nd and 3rd gen's) i got a list somewhere, if i find it i'll put it in, but for the most part there the same (in strength), if you get a new turbo possible a t3/t4 then it should be able to handle around 300-325hp @18-20psi, but after that im not sure if you'll want to keep on cranking up the boast with out swapping out some internals, also i dont know if you'd want to get boost that high depending on how many miles you got on that 3sgte...
