right now i have a 94 toyota celica with a 2.2l 5sfe engine. would it be better to rebuild and put a new head on the 5sfe or to buy a 3sgte engine and do a complete engine swap. i have an auto. tranny right now and eventually i want to change that to manual so take that into consideration also. the main thing i want is to turbo my car and i know you can turbo a 5sfe but is it real spendy or nothin compared to a whole new engine. also can you put a 3sge head on a 5sfe engine to upgrade the engine. thanks for the help

From what I've read, this is accurate. It's not much harder or easier. It's easier to put in a GT than ST. So it's a better option than a 4age. The 2zzge is in debate. It's one of the most exciting things to happen on this site since.... I don't know what it compares to, but I'm excited. -------------------- Live Free, Be Happy
