Yes the 22R has lots more torque, which will be a real advantage if you're towing a caravan. I don't think that's the intended application here though! I was simply making the point that if you're going to all the trouble of an engine conversion, why use an engine which is only slightly better than the original? Why not go for something decent? Let's face it, a Celica with a 22R is never going to be fast (not without lots of money thrown at it anyway).

Re the manifolds, a 22R inlet manifold will NOT fit on a 20R cylinder head - the bolt pattern and port spacing is different. I'm not 100% sure on the exhaust side, but I think it's the same deal. In any case I wouldn't recommend using a 22R-TE manifold if you want a turbo - it's a very poorly designed manifold. Also, it locates the turbo in a position which will foul the steering box on a LHD car. You're much better off getting a custom manifold fabricated, or using a J-pipe off the 20R manifold if you want to do it low-budget.
