Hi i was just wondering wether you could turbo charge a BEAMS 3sge red top? And what would be involved in doing it if it was possible? thanks...
BEAMS TURBO - 6G Celicas Forums
Yes you can. Is it wise to do so? No. Why? Too high of a compression. What can you do to be able to boost the 3sge red top? Get factory 3sgte parts such as the manifold, turbo and downpipe.

IS300 = 3.0 liter = 2JZGE
IS200 = 2.0 liter = 3SGE
Therefore it must have been swapped... son. Why would someone go with a turbo beams instead of the almighty 2JZGTE? I don't see the advantage.

GDAY MATE. the best thing to do is actually get a 3S-GTE since they are cheaper and less rare. Chuck that in and ur ready to BROOOM BROOM
