Of course I will be boosting this so technically it will be a 5sgte. But I was wondering what the pros and cons are with the 1st gen 3sge head? I like the intake manifold on the 3sge but I doubt it will flow as good as the 3sgte manifold.

I have access to dirt cheap 3sge heads and it would be an awesome project.

In need of a rust free chassis!!!!

Hes saying if you want a better flowing head get a 3sGE head not a GTE. I really hope you get your engine harness done right and use the 3sge ecu and electronics. You'll have troubles with the 3sge dizzy with a 5sfe ecu. You can;t fit a 5sfe dizzy onto a 3s head. If you've ever seen the dizzys side by side you'll see that the 3s dizzy has a longer shaft. Not only that the 3s dizzy has 2 pick up coils and the 5s has one.

Just do it right the first time and get your harness converted. to run in your car. Now if you plan on using a 3rd gen 3sge head on a 5s block. Say you get a complete head and harness and ecu. 3rd gen meaning coming from a st202 chassis, its plug and play in your 6th gen celica, since the body harness is the same. Now keep in mind there maybe things that needed to be wired up, but it should be plug and play.
