Turbo set-up for 3SGE III gen., Pics and parts list, please. Options

[TomPoz]

As I am planning turbo kit project next year, I would very much appreciate some nice pics and list of parts for turbo set-up on 3SGE engine (III gen.). In order not to have one time cash outflow I want to start purchasing particular elements now.
Thanks.

if your going to bolt on all that stuff why not just get a 3sgte?

I was thinking about it but there is little Celicas over here, even less GT4s and bringing an engine from e.g. Japan is simply too expensive. I have a mechanic who said that he can do the custom turbo kit (used turbo, new intercooler, new piping, new piggy-back, set-up) for ~3000$. I think that is reasonable, and the guy knows what he's talking about and doing as he has produced ~1000hp Supra MK IV.

Buy a clip or a crashed GT-Four from England.. Take what you need from that and dispose of it.

The 3S-GE is not good for turboing at all.. Compared to the 3S-GTE (who is already turboed from factory).

Says who? The 3S-GE can be just as capable.

Well, look at all the work and parts used in that rebuild.. I would hardly call that engine a 3S-GE anymore But of course, if you want to completely rebuild your entire 3S-GE engine instead of getting a 3S-GTE (because it would cost alot to transport it) then I guess this rebuild would be alot more costly, and harder.

I still hold on to my cents.. Getting a 3S-GTE engine from somewhere and putting that one in. Or do custom turbo like nik and playr and those guys have done. But just ask them, it's _alot_ of work to do it right.
