I have noticed whilst reading through several of the forums on this site that some have a FAQ sheet stickied to the top of the listings, Containing some very usefull and informative information such as which engines can be easily swapped, what you can or cant turbo, curb wieghts, power outputs, good aftermarket products, various sizes/dimensions & service tips etc. Would it not be a good idea to start one for us Celica fans as it would help prevent the numerous reposts about Turboing ST`s, what engine swaps can I do or how powerfull is my Gt etc. Also it would give usefull information to people new to the car world and to enthusiast alike and help maintain all this info in one place, Post your info here and help everyone out, so please Mr/Mrs Mod sticky this so people can post usefull info here. Unless anyone thinks that this isnt a good idea?

As far as I know its standard right now, to be honest I dont even know what PSi it runs as standard. I`m still on the learning curve when it comes to cars with a turbo.

naw itll negate the prupose of the ct-20...its supposed to be a fast spooling turbo that can only hit around 12 psi...theres a guy onthe mr2 boards with a mr2 turbo thats got one and hes hittn 25+ psi with it at 350 HP
its a good turbo, it only runs 5psi stock so that the engine will last longer, the higher the boost the more the chance your gunna blow your motor/ the more the boost the fast its gunna wear out
