which would be easier/cheaper? - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #71980 4 posts Started by Tsizzles98
ok so my celica is creeping up on the 300,000 mile mark, stock engine
now i want to do a swap
here are my options in my mind
1.) buy a fresh 5sfe and throw on a 3sgte head
2.) buy a fresh 5sfe and throw on a turbo set up
3.) buy me a 3sgte and swap it.
i want the easiest way and im not super worried about price but it would be a bonus for the cheapest.
your cheapest and easiest option would be to rebuild the 5sfe and add a turbo setup. the 3sgte will make more power than the 5s with turbo but it will cost alittle more and you will have to do some wiring. a few ppl have 3sgte for sale now in the B/S forums. look at the stickies and read before you decide on anything though.
Probly 3s, I havent looked at the other options though. But seeing that you made it to 300K makes me feel good about 211K! Thanks, you just made my day better!
