Not picking it up until Monday, but have found a Gen IV 3SGE for a stupidly cheap price today - perfect for my rally car project.
Plan is to completely rebuild using lightweight forged rods/pistons, increased CR, balanced bottom end, flowed head, etc and throttle bodies. With uprated cam gear, should be looking at a rev limit of at least 9,000rpm - especially if I use shimless buckets out of a 1zz-fe, and save approx 30gms of weight per bucket at the same time  220 - 240bhp with an aftermarket ECU is my aim.....

Dont know how much it would help, but trd put together a completely rebuilt beams 3sge, with about 270 horses and 240ft lbs of tourqe, just using all internals.......no computer reprogramming or nothin.....as a matter of fact, if you go to their trd japan website, theyll have everything they used for sale.........might help some, esp with the throttle bodies.........and another place to buy tb's for your 3sge is http://www.axia-sports.com/altezza.html, and http://www.junauto.co.jp/products/intake-p...en..........and good luck.

How exactly are u going to be doing your ITBs? Are you going to run 4 different pipes from your intercooler? This kinda seems not such a fantastic idea on a turbo car.
