    As long as you have your wastegate set at 6-7psi, retard timing by 2 degrees and run 91+ octane, you should be fine. Also you need some sort of fuel management, think of either a inline fuel pump or stock supra fuel pump. Larger injectors, from camry 3SGE/5SFE/4AGE (24lb/hr). And a raising rate FMU 10:1 Vortech maybe.. its also a good idea to have a fuel pressure regulator.

    Or you could go the electronic way (still need pump and larger injectors) with a SAFC or Greddy EManage seems most popular here. You might want to get even bigger injectors with that setup 7MGE (30lb/hr) injectors from supra or 3SGTE (36lb/hr) MR2

    -As for injectors you can always go aftermarket, but thats the more expensive option, also some company measure flow rate in metric, this formula would come in handy CC/Min = LBS/HR x 9.71
    LBS/HR = CC/min x 0.103

    T25 if you are planning on only low boost with faster spool up and better low end.
    T3 for higher boost, requiring engine build up, but you may also run it low

    nice find.. but as you might already know thats just a stock manny with a T3 flange welded on.. and there has been numerous reports of the stock manifold cracking even when the car is stock-ish.

    JGS percision turbo has an intake manifold for 4A-FE corollas. The website is www.jgstools.com/turbo/index2.html This would probably be your best bet. And by the way the turbo kit from landspeed racing is that same crappy turbo kit that everyone is having problems with dude the picture is the same. Just face up to the fact THERE ARE NO KITS for 93-97 corollas everything has to be custom. Just look at the 1.5 inch downpipe they supply with in that landspeed kit. Also there is no such thing as superior and extreme or street and strip as they refer to it.All in all the same crappy turbo renamed and repackaged by another vendor. Either you get all the parts to make it work or you blow up your engine in the process.

    Not to mince but garrett makes the turbo not the kit. Everything else is just an add on to sell it as a kit.
