Don't turbo it. You're just wasting money. Save up for a decent engine instead.
You could put an 18R-G in there for less and it'd go harder.

yeah well i was going to either put a 1jz, 3tgte or a 1ggte in it, so i was going to have a play around for a few months before i did that. but what do u think would go the hardest and would be the cheapest and easiest to put in out of those three engines?

1JZ would definately go the hardest but would be the most difficult and expensive to get in and running. A 1GGTE would definately be the best bang for buck.

3T and 1G would prolly be equal in difficulty, but the power difference is huge.
1JZ is the hardest and is a bit big for the chassis.

dude... an 18R-G conversion would cost around $1000. If u have spare dosh to waste on a turbo, just convert to an 18R-G if u want more poke.
Then after that go the 1G-GTE if you still want more power.

Except in most states you have to find an 18RG that is as new or newer than the car...which limits it to an 18RGEU pretty much, which means you have to do an EFI conversion and may as well have started with a 1GGE or something

and why go for the ge when the gte is just a bit more?
purpose of an introduction in a thesis: to read 500 pages of other peoples research, condense it into less than 20 pages, then refute most of it as crap.

I also have a 21Rc, and from what i hear and know they are a pretty puss engine...unfortunately i dont have the dollars to get a front cut or anything, and to be honest i dont think id bother. I do want better performance from it though, so I am thinking of just cutting some headers from a wreck. How did you go about finding a Webber to suit 21Rc?
