Is there a reason why you're swapping?


I'm wondering this too? 2.2 Celica, for 2.2 MR2? There are no gains what so ever. It's just a different 2.2 5sfe. As long as it's OBD1, which it is. If it's because it's less miles, then that's a reason, but not that good of one. I have 143k on my 5sfe, and all I need to do is put a new disstributer and plug wires on it soon. Same thing you'll have to do with a 40k motor in a bit. Are you planning on putting a turbo on a low milage 5sfe? No one is ever happy with there 5sfe turbo for every long. It's a baby set on the performance ladder. Don't get me wrong, those turbo 5sfe could smoke me in a line.

I see what your saying, [the parts I recommended] won't make the car go that much faster. They do help though, and like I said, they are the basics. Using a CAI with synthetic oil and full exhaust will make a noticeable difference. It won't be as much as a turbo, but it'll be something.

WARNING TO ALL BSers: If I find you, I will set you strate. You can't lie to poeple who know, and it will happen. Then you won't look cool at all. You'll look like a jackass. And then everyone will know your a jackass.

i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this.
