what engine would be best for a turbo conversion{18R only}?


Ummm... there isnt much variation on the 18R avaliable.
Never came out in turbo/blown form.

If you wanted to turbo the 18R, the 18R-GE would be the best. But you would need low comp pistons or a thick copper head gasket to reduce the compression.

You might as well move to a diff engine like the 1G-GTE.
Might even take less work than the 18R-GE -> turbo to get in.

Either was, youll still have to get it engineered, which will mean youll have to upgrade other parts of the car as well... like brakes.

A W50 for the 18R-xxx, not sure what box for a 1G.

A rough guide on price:
