7afte or 4agze? Options

Too much E-bay.

In terms of manifold, do what you wish. I personally will be running a log style unit.

T3\t4= too big for a 7afe. T3 is ok.

Most people run 8-9 psi on a stock 7a,,, which is all I would reccomend for a 139k mile 7a. with a fresh 7a, however, I hear 11 psi is streetable.

get a walbro supra fuel pump= just as good if not better and cheaper.

There are lots of injectors out there to use, the venom are the most expensive

The venom 400 unit is totally useless. get a FMU like a greddy unit or a apexi SAFC.

*** I also say you need a wide band 02 set up to tune the engine, to do otherwise is reckless ***


Have you run a T3/TO4B (or E) in a 7A-FE to get to that conclusion? I have and both turbos spooled-up just fine and felt right at home with this crappy econo-engine. I am running 15 PSI on stock internals and as much as I try to break this engine, it won't happen...with turbo MX-6 injectors and a Walbro 255lph...and NO fuel management or tuning of any kind. People need to have experience on their own before just randomly spouting mis-information. Does anyone remember the old "7A-FE won't hold more than 7 PSI?" myth a few years ago when only two or three cats and me from celica.net were starting to mess with the 7A-FTE? LOL.


Oh, this T3/TO4B is too damn big for my 7A-FE.

If it's too big, how come it boosts 5 PSI by me just caressing the gas pedal with my foot? I was doing there what? Like 15-20 MPH? Hmmm.

What kind of numbers do you put down? and how much did it cost you.

My 7a has about a bit less then 95k

I have never dynoed it or tuned it...the cost was about $6,000 in parts...maybe more...but it's because I had to re-do things, llike the turbo, piping, etc. But I tested with a low 14s Integra GS-R and beat it in less than an 1/8th of a mile...from a deadstop at 10 PSI IIRC. Also I tested against my buddy's Hyundai Accent with Tiburon 2.0L engine and a 75 shot of n/o...I pulled him very good. And a few stock WRXs...obviously pulled away before the quarter mile. Hardest was against a turbo Mazda3 SP5...couldn't pull on it until after 80 MPH or so...IIRC...he nailed it first and turbo lag got me...I was on O/D.

EDIT: So, obviously I am standing somewhere in the 14s...I wouldn't mind dyno-tuning it good and safe and leaving it at that...feels great the way it is...I mean, it's not my old 600HP Supra but it's still nice.

Get it on a dyno! Im interested

4AGZE because it's stronger and more buildable...
