6th gen noob turbo ?'s!!!, Some questions on turbo'in a 5sfe Options

[Chrishan]

Hey all, The girl ive been with for a few years now picked up a 97 celica gts from an X boss of mine, and now that she has had it for a year, and me doing the work on it and helpingher pick out some parts for it, We want to turbo it.
Me being a Nisdan guy with a S13 240, It's different from the old easy SR20 swap or RB and ca, etc.


Anyways my questions are,

-what kind of turbo parts from other celicas can we use ? ( 3sgte manifold )?
-Is it a tough job to do on the 97 gts, ( no air lot's of space )
-The car has 190k at low boost would it be ok to run a turbo set up?
-IS there anywhere that makes a decently priced complete turbo kit?

You're asking if you can run boost on a 190k mile motor. If you are a car guy you would know that a healthy motor isn't told by the mileage on it. Its told from a leak down test and a little on a compression test.

Talking about swapping in sr20's in a 240 being easy, the 3s swap is easy.
