Hey just wondering what would be needed to bolt up a smallish turbo to my 4A-FE. I know i SHOULD do a conversion and the 4AFE isnt a strong motor, but i cant get rid of it just yet.
I know I'll need things like:
*Turbo, Exhaust manifold and dump pipe etc, intake system... But need your help on this idea..
And if anyone has done it before.
Thanks much appreciated. (dont flame me) plz

weather u like it or not ur gonna get flamed!!
unless u plan to do all the custom work ursef or happen to bump into a cheap turbo kit for the 4AFE, otherwise i personily wouldn't be bothered with turbo built up. it cost money and headaches and time.
better saved ur money, be or at least try to be happy with what u currently got,then once u got enough money get somthing that pays u back with the money you're putting in.
but unless ur doing it for the LOVE then u also gonna need : intercooler, computer, exhaust system and ur properly gonna need to do somthing about that compressions, more things that u might get away with, but should considered is the brakes, fuel system gearbox and i m sure theres a few more but this post is already too long...
