the CT26, the turbo that came off the 3sgte engine, i'm hoping that works. I've searched the forums and found nothing on it..so...does anyone know if it'll work?


you just confirmed what a lot of members were afriad you were doing; yes it can work, almost any turbo can work with any engine, the thing is how efficient. It'll take forever to get the turbo spooling on a 7AFE


Once you get a custom exhaust manifold to fit the turbo, you'll found yourself in a laggy world, where your full boost point will be close to your red line.

Oh really? Well..that just ruins everything, seems I bought the car for nothing now..lol

you said the car had an axel problem, why not just fix the axel and have fun with it. it should be a good beater.
I would, but we completely gutted out the 89 celica just about, and the engine is an ST tranny, thats what keeps breaking the axel..so it would just keep breaking axle after axle, after axle. So i'm not going to screw with it...any ideas would be great, if I don't get any good ideas today or tomorrow, i'm going to have to scrap the car..which would really suck...But money is tight right now, so I need to do something..lol

So your saying you have a 4th gen, with a 3sgte and an st tranny, and thats why the axles keep breaking? Dood, at least take the time to learn the basics about these cars before you start your projects.

you also seem to think that you can take the parts off the 3sgte, throw them in your truck and slap them on your ST. hate to brake it to you, but you cant do that.

Yeah, i'm aware of that. So i've just decided to scrap the car. I'll lose a lot of money by doing that - but oh well, I have no need for it. Sorry to waste all the time.

Appreciate all the feedback too guys, even though it cut deep =P lol I've been around Drill Sergeants from nov. of 2006, until July of 2007..so...i'm used to it. lol!

Live n' Learn. Now you know to do a lot more research before a big project like this. why not part it out on craigslist or something?

Let me know which junk yard you send the car to biggrin.gif
