man that is some work... i know the 3S-GTE will bolt into Camrys, but I have never seen one in a Corolla. Why didn't he just go with a boosted 4A-GE, maybe one w/ a 20V head?

because he didn't want to spend money on making the engine stronger. He can boost all day long, and not have a worry in the world.. if he was to turbocharge the other engines.. then he'd need fuel management, etc etc.. just like with a honda.

also, second hand aftermarket parts for MR2 are cheap here especially all that good engine performance stuff from japan

looks good....i am thinking of doing a 20V into my mom's AE101 (96 spec)

other choice would be 4AGZE but again, more work to raise the boost and power to the 3SGTE levels

to the Thai tuners, which never stop amazing hybrid projects
