celica 5sfe engine

[illGT4]

600-700 HP, eh?

Better just forget about which harness to use and just skip to an aftermarket ECU. Get it tuned by a skilled individual.

And 5S-FE can be turbocharged just fine. With or without the 3S head.

I know of 500RWHP+ 5S-FE (5S-FTE)

Again, if I were you, and I had a spare, built 5S-FE that I wanted to use in anything, I ditch whatever stock controls there were and go standalone.



There's no way in hell you're getting any descent power (350BHP+) with the stock ECU.

Best of Luck

And also, running a T67 on the stock ECU would be a very bad idea, even with the purdy little black boxes....

I have heard of a 10 second 5sfe mr2 of course with a 3sgte head on it... of course, its ur choice

I have all the parts to swap, head, turbo intake,turbo, and computer from a turbo celica. I wanted to see if that just bolts on a 5s block.
I really want a 2.2 liter turbo charge engine and can you bolt up the all wheel drive tranny on to that block too the 5f.

[illGT4]

how's that going to work? You have a 2.2 liter engine being controlled by a All-Trac ECU??

Bad idea.

[davidbeb]

so what will work? Do I get the 5f computer reprogram for the turbo?

[illGT4]

A modified/chipped 5S-FE *may* work.

BUT, if you've got the cash, get an aftermarket ECU.

You need something, that can control the fuel and ignition timing. Something that is tuned to *your* exact setup.

Chipped/Modified ECU aren't tuned for your car normally. Usually, they are setup over the phone, which doesn't net the most accurate tuning.

Where are you from?
What exactly are you using from the 5S and 3S?

can I swap the 5sfe engine into my 91 corolla sr5 which has the 4afe engine in it. I know the motor mounts match, but not sure of the wiring harness.
