Talked to MWR and they are looking up pricing for me for the SF Turbo kit which will take the GT to 230hp at the wheel and apex PFC will give it around 20-30 more HP. PS...My GT with a Turbo will smoke your ^GTS. thumbsup The only time im going to sell the GT is when I get my skyline imported in a year or two...

I disagree-don't sell the gt, don't get a gts. Sorry guys, but gt has more potential than a gts. A celica gt has lower compression than a gts meaning that you can put more boost in a gt, maximizing the power compared to the gts. I just emailed Vortech about making a supercharger for a GT since no one has-still no response-probably won't get one back, but at least I tried.

i will have to disagree also...the gt has a lower compression ratios which allows for a better gain off of the Turbo...so keep the gt thumbsup
