i think jay is saying the bulldog guy is full of sh!t. anyway. i wouldnt say all that about him because he is ur buddy. i doubt he'll lie to you like that. i personally dont believe any 5sfe ever made it to 400hp... or near 150hp without a turbo. maybe u misunderstood him. however, for that price hes offering the engine for, for cheaper, you can go to a junky and get a 5sfe out of a celica with decent milage and it'll drop right into your car with absolutely no modifications. mr2, i believe was mounted in the rear so there might be some things that are a bit different, so just be careful. keep us updated n goodluck.

QUOTE(JoKeRkId613 @ Jan 13, 2006 - 7:57 PM) [snapback]378437[/snapback] i think jay is saying the bulldog guy is full of sh!t. What I am saying is that going to a 5sfte can net you HUGE increases performance wise (on a percentage basis) over the 5sfe. Look at Manny (presure2) making 210+whp and 230ft/lbs+ torque and the stock 5sfe makes about 120whp. The suggestion that turboing a 5sfe is a "baby step" in power is not accurate - especially when you compare it to adding a cold air intake and synthetic oil like he has recommended to people in the past. I think we as a community need to do just as bulldog says and try to correct misinformation that is propogated by others. QUOTE(Bigmeanbulldog55 @ Jan 13, 2006 - 8:39 PM) [snapback]378462[/snapback] Are you just picking on me for the fun of it? No, pointing out inaccuracies and inconsistencies. For the life of me, I cannot understand how someone can make those two statements I referenced. -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] 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. |
