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 |

the main thing with the blacktop is figuring out whether it's going to sit in an altezza or a celica, as to what parts you choose, as you need the blacktop sump for an upright rwd setup, any other sump for a tilted traverse engine mounting
the intake manifold and throttle body may end up in a wrong position but thats okay, interchangable -------------------- Mike W

EDIT: have also read that an easier way to overcome the problem with the exhaust side controller, is to either get rid of your cam cover gasket, and or use a 3rd gen one with a recess cut out for the controller...anyone got any verification on this? Heard it makes it possible to install "that sides" mount.... the main thing with the blacktop is figuring out whether it's going to sit in an altezza or a celica, as to what parts you choose, as you need the blacktop sump for an upright rwd setup, any other sump for a tilted traverse engine mounting the intake manifold and throttle body may end up in a wrong position but thats okay, interchangable I agree with you on the sump issue. But aftet trying to visually compare the 3sgte and beams oil pans (upper and lower) it looks as if it should have no problem clearing our subframes, as the 3sgte upper pan looks larger to begin with, and the lower 3sge seems to be larger. If anything using a lower 3sgte oil pan and pickup with the blacktops upper, just might do the trick. This post has been edited by 3WayStunna: Jul 23, 2011 - 2:02 AM -------------------- (\__/)
