Has anyone successfully turbo a 3SFE. Thier is a memeber of our forum [RAV4world.com] that turbo charged a RAV4 and had a ton of problem. I've asked him and I'm waiting for an answer. But, here, has any one done this turbo setup in a 3SFE engine?
Hey Charlie...when ya gonna do a write up for us? you and da_horse are the only ones that i know that had turbos and no problems, and da_horse ditched his.....PLEASE?! just what parts you used, what modifications were needed and if you know, some numbers would be nice too, 0-60, 1/4mile HP, Tq...that sort of thing.

I think about everyone that's turboed a 3s or 5s has blown up.
I don't remember any of either off-hand that are running.

88LE no longer has the turbo kit on his Camry. Its been on my car for almost two years now. I've owned the car for about a year and a half, and I have successfully driven the car 7k miles with not motor problems (just checked the plugs this weekend - perfect so far!). Then again, my motor was rebuilt before the turbo was put on the car with chromoly rings and a metal headgasket.

I didn't know da_horse has his turbo installed??
I'm to busy getting the car running to do a write-up at this point. No dynos yet - it wouldn't be very impressive! LOL... Once the car's repainted, the suspension is finished, the intercooler is installed, the new engine management is running... blah blah blah... there are a ton of things to do, and I still have my WRX to work on too. Come to LA - I'll show you the car.
