i posted this in the garage, but i know this is where most of the people who know anything are located so ill repost here
So i just bought an 1987 toyota supra MKIII for 2600 bucks. she is naturally aspirated .. no turbo on she but i have found a 7mgte (Turbo) motor for sale on the web for 700 bucks or a 1JZTGE motor for 1500 . but also have found a manifold for a 7mgte for 300 and i know from research that the heads on the NA and Turbo car are exactly the same. soo what do you suggest ? upgrading my motor (220000 miles rebuilt 50000 miles ago) or just tearing it out and putting in a brand new 7mgte ot 1JZTGE motor from a jdm importer ? any suggestions are welcome, PS: im setting this car up for a daily driver that can compete in local gymkhana events, so i need the added horsepower, she comes with about 220 as is with a custom air filter and she is lowered 2''.
