as stated, if you want to turbo w/o a full engine build, 3vz is a better option.
if you're willing to do a full build, 1mz is a better option. the block is not the weak point in engines. how often do you see a block fail? excluding a rod going through it. 1mz weak point are the pistons and rods. -------------------- QUOTE "And, as always, your friendship, help, and dedication to the advancement of Texas Celica dominance is GREATLY appreciated.

But really... what sort of cheapo would go through the hassle of a turbo VZ/MZ swap and skimp on the internals... which are integral to making power? If you are of that mindset and want to swap in and turbo charge a stock engine... well... you deserve the sketchy information. BTW... Newer is better... and apparently Toyota agrees -------------------- "It's ok to be naked girl... I'm an artist!"
