man this is just sad..yeah a celica engine wouldnt do much...mr2 engine..maybe some hope..
I guess the best would be forced induction...turbo..custom

Reality Check:
Old Mr2 Engines were 5sfe's - yeah the same used on celica's (as in my signature) and the same used on solara's (i4's pre 2002)
Mr2 Turbo Engines (forced inductions) were 3sgte's - yeah, the same used on st165, 185 and 205's for their celica platform!

The new MR-S engines are 1zz's (same as corolla, matrix AND CELICA).
