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. -------------------- 98 Celica gt red- totaled deer

Yeah - I know. You are right - there wasn't alot of planning on the front side. I actually planned on just doing a complete swap to a Gen 3 or 4 JDM 3S-GTE but a buudy of mine sold me a GTE head real cheap and told me I could build it to use on my 5S. He failed to mention all of the stuff involved that would have to be changed for it to work - not to mention the $ involved. Some buddy huh? Guess that's what I get for listening to a Honda fanatic. If I just decide to scrap this idea - is there anything I can do to my stock 5S to up the power? Who sells the turbo kit? I've been trying to find the Burien Toyota kit but the link I received - www.poweredbytoyota.com - is no longer valid. Any suggestions will be considered at this point. Thanks to all for the input - next time I'll do more research on my part before diving into something this deep. LOL!!
