So i wanted to know what you guys who are 'In the Know' think about this:
other then engine displacemnt and obvious advantages the 3sgte has i want to know what you guys think is more worth wild. Iv been doing alot of my homework and have basiclly decided on simply swaping my 5s-fe with a 3s-gte, BUT i was wondering what you guys WITH either 3s-gte's or 5s-fte's think about it. What seems more worth is, AND if i were to turbo a 5s-fe how much boost can i push safely with out any internal work? All of your imput would be very helpfull... -------------------- ![]() |

3sgte.. its been done.. and its a great engine.. and in the right hands can do great things for your celi ( in the right hands) ... but on the down side... even and engine made for boost can be damaged every easy .. in the wrong hands.. trust me i know ...
5sfte - not done that much... and its a great engine and wonderfully thing can be done to it in the right hands... yea the engine wasn't made for boost.. but like ever engine out there is can handle a bit more then the N/A 14.3 lbs or air pressure.. its limits.. well thats the one good thing about the 5s (in the us) so many of thim if you want to really test it out you can and if you blow then motor... you can get on the next day... -------------------- |
