My question is. If I turbocharge my standard engine, will I need a new transmission/clutch, brakes etc?

Or to put it this way, how many horsepower/psi of boost can my standard transmission/clutch/brakes etc. handle before something blows?

I'm not interested in a GT-4 or all out engine swap and 300+ horsepower. I just want to freshen up my 116 hp standard engine a bit. Anything above 150 wheel horsepower and I'm happy. New intake, header, exhaust and a turbo should be able to get me those extra 35-40 hp, right?

Also, the part search lists the Greddy SP1 Cat-back exhaust as a possible addon to my car, but is that because in US the 99-model Celicas are all 2.0 litre GTs? Or will this exhaust infact fit my car (non-GT european). On a sidenote, why should exhaust for the GT not fit the non-GT? The cars look the same, don't they?

(This is the German version of the car with a 1.8 litre engine (1.8i), not the 2.0 litre)

I'm still looking for an answer to this. If anyone know about it.
