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

I'm also having a similar question running through my head too. Cuz right now I'm running with the 7afe and I'm not sure if I should swap with the 5sfe or the 3sgte. And if I was to do the 3sgte what all would I need for the swap? Especially how it'll be running FWD. Guys help me out here! kindasad.gif

if you need to ask opinions on a 135hp econo engine, and a 225hp performance engine, IMO your not ready for a 3s.
