Understanding the difference, I don't want to be misinformed Options

[frosty]

I'm not looking to getting flamed, I just need to understand something.

As I've been searching the forums about my previous post on future engine mods, I found that it's not good to turbocharge the beams motor.

Is this true? If so then why? To my understanding hondas v-tech motor can be turbocharge. Is not the vtech and the beams vvt-i somewhat similar in what they do? PLEASE, IF YOU KNOW THE ANSWER, CORRECT ME AND CLARIFY THIS!!!! I do not want to be misinformed on this. As a celica lover I need to know this and as you guys are celica lovers you should correct this information.

Thank you.

You can turbo almost anything. There may not be as much of a margin of error with the beams though. High compression and a moderate amount of boost mean you'll more than likely have to run an octane higher then what you can pump at the gas station. If you're going to run low comp pistons and change the head gasket you might as well invest in a 3SGTE. The only reasons I can see for boosting a Beams would be for individuality or if your Celica came with it stock. VVT should not be an issue if it is properly tuned.
