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. |

1st thing you want to do is DO YOUR OWN SWAP! if you are planning on having a 300+ celica, you better know every inch of that car, so that if anything isint running right, youll know right away.
check out www.mr2oc.com there are guys there that will tell you what type of power you can expect to make with what upgrades. normally, the 3sgte is good for about 250ish at the wheels. 350 is some serious power in a light celica, and might make the car very hard to drive. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
