Im Stewart. Im new too this whole forum thing so be nice i became a member because i own a Mr2 1999 model that has a NA 1998cc 3sge in it . I want too put a turbo on it the stock ct20B would put a smile on my dial but its not as simple as that i can get all the parts i need 4 it all ECU, Compressor, oil feed lines, Manifold, dump all that lovely stuff but i need t no whether My Gen 3 motor has the piston oil cooling from factory ??

What else do i have too do ? other than the ovious lowering of compression.

I have done hours of research on these engines i read the only difference between the 3SGTE and 3SGE is the lower compression and of course the turbo ?

Looking at a turbo trottle body its in a completly different set up too the N/A's one ..

Is there a champion that can help me?? Ha !!

S2ii :)

I'm guessing it would be much cheaper and more reliable if you do the full conversion from a front end smashed turbo on to your N/A. It's comon practice here and many people have had this conversion done. Do you have anything like that over in Tasmania?

We have a few companies over here that do the conversion and there are a few people on www.imoc.co.uk who have done this themselves. I understand the whole rear including the subframe, drive shafts and shocks swap over along with the wiring loom.

would have thought you will need to get forged internals as you wont be able to run very high boost

yes indeed i have thought of the whole 3sgte conversion but .. too buy a decent engine with a good turbo on it cost ***** loads and even then id have too find some1 to do the conversion 4 me as i dont have the equipment to do it myself and a mechanic in tassie who can be bothered with it being midmounted .

We dont really have any conversion places that i know about living in tassie as well means id prob get the raw end of the deal when i comes to buying a 3sgte best bet is to head to mainland too get it .. :(

I only want to have it running at stock boost which is something on the lines of 8 to 12 psi for GEN3 ?? corect me if im wrong !!

id have too change the pistons to forged lower compression then yeah thought they where the same :s
