I have my car for sale and did not have much intrest. So I might keep it. If so I have some money saved to mod my car. I had a ct20b installed not to long ago. Not sure If I should get a bigger turbo and aem fic? Or keep the ct20b and get a aem fic with 3 bar map fuel rail and bigger injectors? I want 325 to the wheels and I have added everything I could to my 2nd gen and I am at the fuel systems limits. Suspension is done so I am good there. Any ideas

Back on topic to your original question.

If you are looking for your next upgrade....you are looking at spending some serious money. This is the biggest draw back from the GEN2 3sgte, is the 440cc injectors. They limit your basic modding bolt ons fairly quickly (around 300whp).

You NEED bigger injectors, and there are only 2 proven ways of achieving this on a GEN2 3sgte. You can go with the ATS rom tune, 550cc injector, and turbo package (GT3071 or TD06) or you can step up to a full standalong ECU, bigger injectors, and larger turbo.

If you are also looking to improve your times in the 1320, you will see MASSIVE gains in upgrading to an LSD E153. You will see such larger improvements for a few reasons:
Longer gears
Better traction due to LSD transmission
And you can cage the axles to run slicks SAFELY.

A bit off topic....but in line with your drive to running faster times:

The problem with nobody running times sub 13's on the FWD Celica is there arent many people actually interested in running that fast and/or they dont have the funds. the majority of this site are young kids which usually goes hand in hand with no money.

I know I would love to see some Celicas into the 12's and faster, but it wont be common at best. You must remember that in order for a Celica to get into the high 13's low 14's they already have about 4-5000$ invested into there cars whether it be swap or 5sfte. To take the next step of dropping even more money to drop into the 12 or 11 second range is a BIG step for most. Its not that the Celica cant get into the 12sec range...it just most dont have the desire and/or the funds to do so.

Based off my power of 330whp at 21psi, I have enough power to run in the 12's EASILY with my car IF I can pull off a 2.0sec 60ft or better (I wouldnt plan on better tho tongue.gif ).

Its only a matter on time before you see Celica diving into the 12's and 11's.....trust me wink.gif .

Have you made any attempts at breaking 12's, or is it postponed because your car is down?
