New here! with 95 GT Options

[95_gt]

hello all im new here and i wanted to say that ive been lurking for the past 3 days looking for answers to my questions but i cant seem to find all f them.
well info on my soon to get 95 celica gt(cuzins old car and my second car). it is virtually stock besides bigger rims and a new head unit. its auto which is the only bad thing but even though its auto its still peppy.

i dunno what to do thugh. i want a turbo car but the eclipse are to finicky an require lots of little things and im a toyota man! i wanted to turbo the stock 5sfe motor but was wondering if yhe stock auto can hold up tp 200hp(if i wanted more than 250hp i would have bought me a corvette lol)?? i want to get a manual trans but then again i like cruise control lol. also what if i swap the engine out for like a 3sgte??? i think that a lightly modded engine of that type would be cool. i think i saw a website on here where they sell a clip from an mr2 for like 1500 bux. and how much would i have to spend to convert an auto 95 gt to a manual(what else would i need?)??? i plan if i do swap over to a 3sgte to build it on a table then just drop the new engine and trans in. and are 3sgte's reliable? also could i pass smog with one? and i dont really want to have to get a stand alone ecu or like an emanage because i dont kno how to tune. so any insight would be really greatful and ive seen lots of really nice 6gc's here and hopefully mine will look cool too! and is there any mods to make the auto trans handle more power? thanks again!

Since you managed to get a '95 (OBD1), you only have to worry about passing the sniffer test and the visual check (EGR). So you could swap in a 2nd gen 3SGTE from a USDM MR2 Turbo or Celica All-trac Turbo, as long as it has EGR.
