My new project...Paseo Turbo engine on my Celi Options

[OOBE]

My buddy has a 94' Tercel and he installed a Japanese Paseo Turbo engine...it's a weird code...he said it was 5A-FE. I know that regular Paseo engines are 5E-FE like the one in the Tercel, but I'm pretty sure it's gotta be a 5A-FTE or 5E-FTE...I'm just guessing. He discarded the stock turbo and installed a custom manifold with a CT-26 out of a deuce. He's running 10 PSI on stock injectors and it hauls ASS. The turbo whistles very loud, but it starts spooling and pulling after 4500 RPM...don't know why. My 7A-FTE at 10 PSI felt stronger and pulled a lot earlier. That engine is less than 1.5 liter...maybe that explains why it feels weaker...also, my turbo is way bigger than the toyish CT-26. Anyway, the little engine has a lot of potential and a high redline...sometimes he went past 7000 RPM...it was very lovely. What do you guys think? Obviously, it won't be too easy to swap if the engine is E series instead of A series. Anyway, I'm pretty pumped up about it...it's a rarity of engine and they have them readily available in Puerto Rico for $900 for engine and 5 speed tranny.
