Yo!

Many of 6GC member put a turbo on the 7AFE motor, and there a lot of comment on this forum about it.
>> >>
My question is; are you satisfy?
Do you have some desagrement, like burning oil or difficulty to install it?
Does it need to change the ECU?
My car have over than 220 000 km, so, it is dangerous to blew the motor if a run 8-12 psi?
Does anybody have install the corolla Turbo kit (is talking in an another post)?
>> >>

I search an alternative to my 3SGTE swap, because its really hard to find the correct part for the swap in my province(first; a GT transmission, second; a GT transmission for a low price >> ...Presently, the transmission cost more than the motor...really!)

thanx for your comment! >>

YES
slight smoke problem under the hood from a problem with the oil return fitting on the turbo
an SAFC will do
do a rebuild, too many miles/km's
not that i know of, it wont bolt up, the exhaust is different

i am pretty happy with my results. i probably should have just done the 3s swap and been done but this setup is one of a kind, designed, and engineered by ourselves. much respect is given due to the diffuculty in this.

I am new to this site. I was planning on spending 2 grand on a Corolla 7afe turbo kit. are you saying it won't fit my ST?
my other option is to get a bunch of little things that will improve HP: Headers,CAI, etc. As I don't have the mechanical/engine knowledge to build a turbo kit myself.
let me know what you guys think

I've heard that Toyota Australia made a stock 7AFTE engine. I think it was in a Corolla. It would be nice to find a way to import one of these turbo's for a direct install. Anyone know how to research this??

Gtech is verrryyy inaccurate. Even wind will throw off your numbers. So will any kind of uneven ground.
