2f turbo?

If I was doing forced induction on the 3FE, I'd get a A/F gauge and go from there but even at low pressures, I'd think it would be pushing 190-200 HP which I'd bet is more than the injectors/pump are capable of handling or at least they would be approching 100% duty cycle...but just guessing.

BTW - sometimes Celica air the water intercoolers come up cheap.

not trying to hijack this thread but when turbo knowledge is available i jump on it.

The aftermarket kits like Axt are too expensive. They run three grand U.S. so I am working out a home brew turbo. The turbo is from a mercedes 5 cylinder turbo diesel. It's a smaller than the 2h but revs higher so it should put the spooling just right for the 2h. Also it has an adjustable wastegate so boost can be contolled. The plumbing isn't too bad. I am just using the same points as the axt for oil but running all of my own lines. the only dificult part, and why I hopped in on this thread, is mounting the turbo to the stock flange. Anyway, it should end up saving me $2000-2500 in the end. And if all goes well my 2h will be more like a naturally aspirate f motor (haha).
