I know that the 3s-ge engine has a higher compression ratio than the 3s-gte (which I guess means that the pistons' head are thiner right?), but what does it change so that we can't (or shall not) turbocharge the 3s-ge?
Is it because it would (I don't know) be too much compressed exhaust gases for the turbo to hold? BTW: what does the last number in the compression ratio mean? (Like in 10:3:1) This post has been edited by dudeofchaos: Jun 26, 2011 - 10:51 PM |

Well I never said I wanted to swap in a turboed 3sge beams engine but damn it would be cool lol. I was just curious. Thanks for the info, but hey... there are 5 gens of 3sgte? I thought there were 4. All first 3 were in Celicas (2nd and 3rd in the Mr2 either), the 4th was in caldinas but what about the 5th? 5th gens were, IIRC, basically mildly revised versions of the 4th gen - and they were found in the last Caldinas. -------------------- Has no more Celicas
