i'm an owner of a st204 97 celica and ive been researching a lot on options for getting more power out of my celica. the 3SGTE swap seems like the better option over a turboed 5SFE but i heard that FWD celicas with the 3SGTE swap that are useless in 1st to 4th gear because of having too much power and not getting traction till the top of 4th gear.
can someone verify this? |

umm where did you get that info... Its not a 700HP beast of an engine. First gear might be a little useless with the stock GT trannie but thats about it. The 3s-gte came in the MR2 which was only 2wd also, RWD though... which dosnt make too much difference traction wise
