I have a GT and I hear that the GTS has an aluminum Intake manifold. In the long run, i do plan to Turbo my car and i don't want to boost through plastic... would it be beneficial now to get an aluminum Intake manifold? anyone got pics of one i can see?

Found it at the last battle. Here you go Boosted GT with an awesome manifold. Don't know how it performs but you can try to contact them. Not sure if they have made this available for public yet.

that would be good, but ITB's would be a custom job from what I remember, and would be super expensive...according to the website (even though I didn't see a celica manifold) the manifold comes with a bigger throttle body too

you will if you Turbo...there are guys that have put in lower compression pisons, and what not,a nd Turbo'd into the 300 + hp range...stick around and ask questions...or go to c2power.com...they ahve celica Turbo kits available with a tranny to go with it (the 1zz tranny doesn't like Turbo)...and the owner's car is already over 300 hp...and the guys at monkey wrench racing have a 385 whp 1zz-fe MRS

No.

200WHP all-motor 1zz is not possible, without ridiculous amounts of time and money. You'd need some serious custom work to attain that, and by then the car wouldn't be streetable.

I promise I'm a lot closer to the NA mark then you are...I'm already built with the higher compression pistons and everything...its really not possible on the GT...keep posting your ideas, and I'll help you out though as to why its not gonna happen...oh and don';t post about cams...its not gonna happen...

Once again, I can dream right? and, slowly but surely, I'm learning how to do all this work on my own car.
