6G Celicas Forums _ Forced Induction _ St246 gen5 3sgte swap
Posted by: mr220v Nov 23, 2017 - 6:02 PM
Just thought I'd mention I have my gen5 3sgte running on the stock ECU. I have the immobilizer issue fixed. I've wired a further 11 mr2s for people along with one st165.
So, in other words, the gen5 3sgte is now an option.

It has a better mid-range on the stock ECU. Beyond that, it's cheaper than a gen4 and usually cleaner. They stopped making these in 2007.

what did you do for the immobilizer? is that a flash to the ECU? or just a wiring hack like code 24 on the 3rd gen

If you are swapping into a 1994 OBDI car does that cause more problems with the 5th gen OBDII?
Would that make the 4th gen better for the older car or does it matter?
I also heard that the 5th gen doesn't have an oil cooler.

no, it wont be a problem at all, some extra wires will be added into the harness, but thats about it.
