Man, this proves that camry people are the cheapest group of people out there...
$2200 is a VERY GOOD PRICE for a turbo kit.

2200-2500 is a bargain! considering youre getting an ecu + programming which will save hundreds too :P even with the shipping to australia it would be at least 1500 cheaper then anything you can get done here.

haha allen u realize u put shitgate? the link actually goes somewhere. anyways, when i got an estimate to do a custom turbo for my 1mz-fe, i was told that the 3s-gte swap + good turbo system would be around $8000 (i dunno why i would swap mine to 3s-gte though), and an all custom and very reliable turbo system would be around $12,000 for the 1mz-fe. i figure thats all top components since that seems very very steep (yukio i think u know the guy i spoke to, because he knows ur camry, and he's one of the top guys for import showoffs in Los Angeles, and he's japanese, i met him at one of the import showoff parties).
the reason they said 3sgte is because you can get around 400hp out of that thing with stock internals, parts are more readily avaiable too.

The only guys that I know that work for Showoff is Ken Miyoshi and Yuji. I know Yuji works on Nissans, but I don't know if he worked on Toyotas or not.
