Does anyone have any information on turbos for a GTS? I'm interested in making my celica really fast, really quick so any help would be great.

Ok so if I ordered something like that, where would you take it to have it installed? I can't see every mechanic knowing how to put that baby in.


Why settle for a lesser evil, Cthulhu awaits....

For you Caerie, there has to be a shop in Chicago that does turbos. Installing isn't the hard part. Tuning is the hard part since there is the apex-i power fc involved. I heard that a representative from XS engineering will fly to you and do the tuning himself. I think that's only with the first few kit batches... Call XS-Engineering to find out more information... Their phone number can be found at http://www.xs-engineering.com/

that would be tight if there were a lot of turbo gts around...then more companies will see that the celica's are getting turbo'd by only a few companies and they'll want to rake in the money too, so then more turbo kits will eventually come out...well i hope so anyway..
i think the xs one is tight... but i want a custom turbo grin

I believe its 320 FWHP eek

I've been talking to them about having it done, VERY small shop and not much staff.

Would take probably 2 months frown

EIP not only does your turbo, but also does internal engine work to produce this "320HP"

I would like to know this too. I know there'll be a increase, but would it be wise to get it??

Chicago area, Eh? Try Driver's Image, they're one of the better shops in the area.

They have a web site, it's at:

If they can't do the install, they'll put you in touch with someone who can.
