my buddy just bought a 95 T/A all done up and i want one real bad...a 3s-gte will keep up with him no doubt but im so close to just selling everyhting i have and buying an LS1 its not even funny...im not looking forward to doing this swap for some reason so i need my fellow 6GCers to boost up my spirits and get me on the right track...or else shes going in the for sale section very very soon...good luck

after thinking about it. id dont suggest the 3sgte, if its your first taste of boost. once it gets a foothold on you theres no stopping it from draining you wallet.

im use to it draining my wallet...my plan is to drop it in this summer with little mods (boost controler, a good tune, water injection etc.) then next summer go big with a larger turbo, cams, bore it out, forged everything the whole 9 yards) i still want to do the celica really bad but the thought of dropping 6-8k on an LS1 and being just as fast with out all this time and work just distracts me...A LOT...its all i thought about today at work...just weighing out the good and bad of both...and so far there quite even...i still dont know what to do
