No, the flange is completely different. The CT20B is the only different turbo that will bolt right up. The other option is a highflowed version of your current turbo.

Ummm your Celica will be running at appro 8 psi at the moment and you need more than just a turbo to get 20-30psi (which is a huge range in itself). Check out the latest Fast Fours for a mad 3S-GTE in the GP & Gizzmo MR2. That might give you some idea of what else you might want to consider before "winding up the boost"

To about 1/2 of what you want if you want 30psi.

Much more than 15psi and you'll need to do a whole lot of other stuff too,
( if you want it to last for long)

Other bolt on turbos are the power enterprise pe1919 and the blitz k1 380v
Both retail for around twice what a new ct20b will cost you.

Totally different turbo. ct20 and ct20b are completely different, you will struggle to even find a used ct20b. Let alone one for $120.

_will_ you have pm for the price.

Ceramic turbine ones are a bit of a lottery, some people have them break just after 1 bar, and people like me have cranked out 1.25 bar regularly on the drag strip without issues.

Mr Revhead off these boards will sell you a new ct20b with a steel turbine that will undoubtably have more longevity than a ceramic, albeit slightly laggier. Its a good turbo if you want to max out your stock fuel system. If you want more than that and have the dollars $$$$ to spend look for something larger.

I believe they go for about $1600, and as Mr Revhead works for Toyota, he can get them at any time.
