So ive been looking to do a motor swap on my car. and i wanted to know what people think is the better engine. Im looking at a JDM 3rd Gen 3S-GTE , or a 99 JDM BEAMS.
Ive seen over the net that the 3S is got more horsepower, yet ive herd alot of ppl say that the BEAMS is by far better. Any one got any good comparisons of the 2? stock comparisons of whats better, and/or modified... any input would be great. -------------------- VitalMotion.net -- Sbonnick

I'd really like to put a 3sge, beams or not, in my car, but I'm worried about the wiring and potential. If it's not going to make crazy hp numbers, I'm not going to be happy. I like the snap of the NA engines, but the hard pull of the turbo motors is a nice feeling too. Bottem line, do a 3sgte, it's a lot easier. If I keep the Celica, that'll go in.
