Yep, the 3SG should be entertaining, and a nice performance jump over the 2.4. Swaps generally target huge increase tho.

normally aspirated BEAMS mods will be costly, with low yield.... especially @ 2700 lbs. Trucks spell torque


sampled an Altezza 2.0 years back. Owner explained BEAMS to me, agreeing it was lacklustre.
Solution? One $150 junkyard T3 turbo. Luckily a perfect match. Strong torque everywhere. Totally transformed the car


Exact same thing planned for my truck 2.4 sohc - boost.
