Someone help me turbo my v6 mr2 ahhhhhhhh

[jhlaird]

I have a 91' non-turbo mr2 with a 1mzfe swap out of a 01' avalon same as the camry v6. I know almost nothing about this engine and there isn't much made for it. Now I am looking at using a smt8 piggyback system on it. I'll use the turbo intercooler and do a remote turbo probably under the trunk. I have custom headers now that go down under the engine and meet in a y-pipe and I wanna keep that. Don't know what the stock injector size is or if I'll need new ones for now. I won't run too much boost untill I can afford to get forged internals. I'm thinking maybe supra injectors? If anyone knows anything about this engine or what ecu/piggyback please help me out.

Do these custom headers have the flanges for the turbos? From what you described, you're probably not gonna be able to use these headers for the turbos.

I'll put the turbo in the back of the exhaust system. I kind of explained it in the mr2 section. So i don't know why I couldn't use them. They just go strait down to a y-pipe under the block and I was going to put the turbo after that. I'll have to make a custom flange i guess.
