turboing my 5sfe, BANNED. Options

[GT4Soldier]

Im really getting more and more interest into just turboing my 5sfe engine, i was checking out some turbo kits on ebay for an 5sfe engine.. and 1 guy is selling an rebuilt turbo kit taken out from his 5sfe engine for only 200 bucks plus 60 shipping.. so im just wondering if this is a good idea, not in terms of buying his rebuilt engine.. but turboing my engine period. I mean i still want an Gt4, but im thinking maybe ill hold that off till i graduate and just buy another GT and dp the swap.. b/c i really love celicas ... and I also think I can do it myself!!!

heres the link to the turbo kit taken from an 5sfe engine:

why do you even need to post this? maybe u need to feel good by posting smart comments so your buddies(butt kissers) can join in and post their non helpful 2 cents as well.. but hey thats 6gc for u.

"dude we say this b/c you havent done any research.. wtf is a rear mount intercooler? that means youve done zero research.. your mechanic charged too much.. youve done zero research.." im sure a similar post like this is coming.

ok, imma break this down, real simple like, so you can understand this.

that quote, sums it up pretty nicely.

when people like myself, and others, spend month after month (YEARS in some cases..i know it took me a solid year of research before i turboed), researching, studying, preparing, and executing these projects, and then take the time to present these results to the community, in the form of detailed writeups, that include pics and in some cases step by step instructions, and they are stickyed to the top of each forum for everyone to use, and people like you come around, and want every answer handed to them on a silver platter, expecting us to say "wow cool. your gonna turbo, heres the parts you need, this is how you install it" when all the info is right there if you take 5 minutes to look for it, it really gets old, and quite frankly, is insulting.
the guys that have been here awhile, and have been there and done that, and are still running, are that way BECAUSE they took the time to learn, research and do things the right way.
those that dont, end up like you, throwing money at projects when you dont really know what your even spending your money on, how this stuff is supossed to work, how it fits together, and why it works the way it does.
hell, at least learn the basics, then come and ask any minor details you need to know, at least that way, it APPEARS like your trying to do somthing for yourself.
to be honest, im pretty much sick of having to hold you guys' hands, guiding you every step of the way with these projects, when the info is right there, in the stickys if you would just READ THEM.

i dont need you, or ANYONE to kiss my ass. i DID the research, i spent the HOURS and hours reading, printing, studing, and applying what i learned. you do the same.
show a bit of smarts, READ THE STICKYS, PM members if needed, THEN come back and ask a question if you need help with somthing.
im willing to bet people would be more than willing to give you good advice that you could actually use then.
dont believe me?
PM 6strngs , better yet, search and read ALL of his topics.
that should let you know where you need to be with all of this.
look, ill even set you on the road. here is a link, that has every topic 6strngs has started.
