3E-TE is a'ight. If you are looking for the most power put a turbo on a 5EFHE (which came out of the early 90s Paseo). I myself, am opting for the 4EFTE swap because it's a direct boltin and I'll be running with a stock intergra typeR after it's in.

will the paseo motor need a new tranny?

Not from what I understand, but you should probably get a new tranny anyway.

can you point me in the directon of where to get turbos, engines and transmissions? also, with new engine, does that mean all new exhaust and all that. could you show me some other peoples engine swaps so i can read up on it?

thanks!

Um, check the www.tercelonline.com forums, lots of people there with the 4EFTE swap.

www.back-yard-productions.com does it
and Tavo83 (on AIM) and on www.tercelonline.com offers complete swap kits.
