Has anyone ever fitted a 3S-GE with a turbo (after market or otherwise)?
I have seen threads which suggest doing an engine swap to 3S-GTE and then install a turbo, but I don't want to do any engine swaps. Has anyone done this before? If so, what's the best way of working and what kits can I use?

wow, sounds like a lot of parts needed. I expected a new intake parts and output manifold, as well as the turbo and probably some work on the ECU or something like that.
Sounds like all this stuff is gonna be a bit expensive, maybe more expensive than getting a GT4...
Does anyone know of some sort of installation instruction guide of how to install all this stuff?
As for my engine, I haven't read out the ECU for faults, but it is running just fine.
Does the 3S-GTE have bigger injectors than the 3S-GE?

Sorry, lunch break is up, so have to come back with my other question slater smile.gif

Thanks!

lets see a GT4 will cost me NZ$8,000, but a good (standard, low km, straight and hard to find) one wil be about NZ$14,000+

so NZ$8000 US$4,500....wow
