Your options are varied hurricane. ive seen all the options you have mentioned and more in TA22's (except turbo18RG, but im sure its been done). The 2TG is an easier option. A turbo motor that bolts in is the 3TGTE, but then you need to sort out a gearbox that fits which will handle the power, and a diff... suggestion of a W55 from a 1G and a hilux G series diff (correct width). To put the 18RG into the TA22, you need to find and install a front sump and pickup, then modify the engine mounts, as well as manufacture a new gearbox mount to slot the W50 which is bound to be behind the 18RG in. Not too much more other than the usual exhaust mods needs to be done. the carbs sqeeze in with a bee's dick of room when you have short air filters and carby runners. Another engine which isnt too hard to slot in is the 4AGTE or 4AGZE, either of which i believe can be found in RWD format from a jap importer. Whatever option you do, other than put a straight 2TG in, you need to consult an automotive engineer to find out what brake and suspension upgrades you will have to perform to drop the motor in.

Cheers, Owen
