To turbo your 3SGE you will need, (not a complete list)
An understanding of what you want to achieve
An understanding of the basics of turbocharging an engine and the dangers associated with it
A big wallet (thats full of $$)
once you have them, set about obtaining the rest...
Turbo Manifold (GT4 manifold is a possibility, however i believe using this one causes the turbo to foul on your starter motor - only when using a S-53 from a 3SGE engined ST162, the 3SFE Transmission has the starter located in a different spot)
Custom manifold is probably better... (but you will need your turbo selected before hand)
Turbo - You will only be running low boost, so a good condition second hand unit will be fine
Bigger Injectors, Bigger Fuel Pump (could possibly get away with the stock one).
Intercooler + piping.
Downpipe for turbo.
Oil lines for the turbo (possibly coolant lines aswell)
Oil cooler for the engine oil, 3SGE has no piston squirters so this is a good idea.
MAP sensor and as a minimum a Programmable fuel computer.
Bigger brakes
and heaps of other small things,
Modification permission, more money for insurance, patience
This should get you started, then....
You may need an upgraded clutch,
better suspension
better tyres
Better exhaust
fulsik stikkas
As you can see, its actually quite serious stuff and will take you a while to do. By no means impossible.
If you dont have about $4000 then I would suggest you don't try and get this done to your car. I get the feeling that you are not a mechanic so will have to pay at least $1500 for labour and fabrication during the install of the turbo and tuning of the engine.
You could purchase the parts needed for $2500 - $3000 quite easily, but will take a while to aquire them all.
In conclusion, turbocharging you st162 will make it go faster for sure. but do it wrong and you will have a really slow car (ie broken)
I believe your best option would be to buy later model 3SGE engine (gen 3 180hp) and put that in. Its not turbo but will go pretty hard.
No get googling mate, you have much to learn
