3SFE engine

First of all, I'm new, just registered, thanks for letting me in. I have a 1997 Toyota RAV4. 4Door, 5 Speed, 3SFE engine. It has TRD Muffler, Front Tower Brace, TRD Springs, Bilstein Shocks, TRD Thrmustat, Weapons R Intake among others. I'm moving into the engine compartment and I hace a 3SFE Head Ported and Polished. I would like to install a Turbo Kit. But I would like to know if I can install anything from other engines like the 4AGe for instance. The 3SGTE, or any other engine so it can help my engine. Example Camshafts, Springs, Gears what ever. Hope you can help me. This message board is well known for its cool information. I'm from the small island of Puerto Rico and I'm a school teacher.

are you part of toyotanation? anyways i'm in the the process of turboing my 3s-fe. your examples are more internal parts that i'm not sure of, but for a basic setup the 3s-gte exhaust manifold will bolt up, the ct-26 will bolt onto the exhaust mainfold, you will probably want a custom dump pipe without the cat. toyotanation has lots of info on turboing the 3s-fe, do a search. as for internals what i've read it that the 3s-gte internals will fit in (share the same block), the head will fit on (but you have already had yours worked so i gather you will want to keep it a 3s-fe), camshafts would have to be custom ground, 4a-ge valve springs will fit to prevent 'floating' at high revs. also i think your late model 3s-fe has a knock sensor.

BTW why've you got the Rav up for sale I'm sure I'll get the end of your ride's forum page but I'm up to page 4 at the mo and been working on it for about and hour and a half?
Cheers
Darryl

I'm not sure what the deal is with Angel, he experiments and over-plans things before he implements them.
My ride is up for sale because I can't afford to keep it, I need to return to stock and my options for cashflow are severely limited. I'm looking for someone to give it a good home and treat it like it deserves to be treated. It's got 12 months rego on it as well...
