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 |

I thought the VVTi also played a part in the nonboostability?

QUOTE (BonzaiCelica @ Jun 30, 2011 - 9:51 AM)  uhh no way man vvti with boost is awesome. Just take a look at The Supra which was added with VVT-i on both intake and exhaust in 1998??? nope just on the intake side. Its actually pretty common to take the NA camshafts and install them in their turbo counterpart, as they are a mild upgrade & usually require less work installing them, than bigger aftermarket camshafts. High compression +T are up to a point, more responsive than the factory GTE. vvti and ACIS are both beneficial in turbo applications, there should be more noticable low & mid torque. I sort of agree with you reasons delusionz. If you have own a 3rd or 4th gen 3S-GE from factory (as in not swapped), you can turbo a 3S-GE (there are a few on here that have) or you could swap a 3S-GTE over. But since the 3S-GTE/ST205 is also accessible to you. its just easier buy a ST205. But as for swapping to a 3S-GE and then to turbo it, it would definitely be easier, safer & cheaper/cost effective to sawp to a 3sgte in the first place. Bonzai, I dont understand your last comment, but you edited it anway. My understanding why people disable their vvti when they start chasing bigger power with turbo, for a few reasons: lack of aftermarket camshafts (there maybe more options nowadays, but maybe not in the same price range as nonvvti camshafts) and secondly the cost of dyno tuning time to tune in the vvti. Slightly offtopic, but Tom's Racing did a "280T" Altezza, it was turbo and limited to just 100. Also the altezza's blacktop 3S-GE has alot of readily available turbo kits from Trust/Greddy, biltz and I think even HKS do one aswell. Plus all the cheap knock offs. moved to the FI section
