Does anyone know what all is involved in converting a 4th gen 3S-GE (American version rated at 135 HP, 125 ft/lb torque) to a 3S-GTE? I've gotten my hand on a 3S-GE out of a 1988 Celica GT-S that was rebuilt 90k miles ago and I want to convert it to a 3S-GTE. Any ideas? Thanks a bunch!

Despite the similar names, they are two totally different motors. You might be able to turbo the 3sge but it will still be very different from a real 3sgte. Dont let their names fool you.
