I'm dangerous with a 5s-fe, is a 3s-gte safe? Options

[Chrobis]

I noticed I drive pretty crazy with my 130hp stock 5s-fe, would a 3s-gte really be a good thing? I have told my girlfriend about about having double the horsepower and she almost wants to cry in fear

South Central L.A. is full of corupt people that will pass my car for smog. I wont be able to get the swap till towards end of summer, if I even do. A 5s-fe can be upgraded to about i'd say 220 with the burien if you strengthen it up and turn up the boost. that would be most likely smog legal and pretty fast i supose... edit: obviously alot of other stuff in the hood also.

I don't think the Burien Kit is as reliable as the 3sgte swap would be though...I know a guy on toyotacelicaweb.com and celica.net that swapped a 2nd gen...he bought the clip for 2k shipped, and sold everything he didn't need...and nearly got all his money back...so the Burien kit wouldn't be my choice...but I'm sure it would be easier...Correction I know it would be easier.
