U could also revise the whole engine to a 3sgte, just replace all the parts of ur current engine with parts of the 3sge. This costs more but then u got new parts and a kick ass car.

I would save ur money until u can do a 3sgte swap or replacement. I got the 175 bhp 3sge and its nice, but i think it doesnt do any justice with a fast looking car like the celica. Its still slow. The 3sgte is perfect.

Finding a 3sgte engine is very difficult, so im saving for a revision of my engine (to a 3sgte), or ill save some more and buy a GT four.

However, those of us in the US with the 115hp ST or the 135hp GT would LOVE to have 175hp, (better than 30% improvement!- without a turbo or SC!) ,,, all things are relative,,,

and as far as a swap, a 3s-ge should be the exact same procedure as a 3sgte, just leave out the steps dealing with the turbo. should be an easier swap,
