ok i have officially given up on the search for a turbo 3sgte after being screwed by a company and now my funds are too low. Im settling on getting a 2nd or 3rd gen 3sge jdm which will give much more power than my stock 130hp 5sfe. Does anyone know a good place to find these? and as far as installation do i need a new tranny and ecu or waht do i need to do the complete swap? thanks

Tranny should be bolt-on. Better get ECU with the engine for more HP.
You ever think about turbo the 5S?

I have a 5s right now, i want more power but in the situation that im in i cant afford the turbo 3sgte so i want to go with a 3sfe which has more power and is cheap. My 5s as of right now has 220K on it and is still running but loosing power, durability of it is questionable and its just overall not gonna run me though college for hte next 4 years. One of my friends told me about a place called flko? she bought a 3s there and got it next day shipping extremely fast. but i cant find hte place ifanyone knew that would be awesome
