I'm not sure either, I've only heard of one person to do it. But you do have a point thought, it would be easier. Does the w trans bolt up to it?

It's as close to bolt in as you can get, really.
5M motormounts, w58 Supra non-turbo bellhousing and it'll bolt right in to a 22re five speed truck.
Check out www.supracharged.com for more details. Even the wiring is easy. I've already got my jumper harness all made up so it'll be almost plug and play this summer when I do mine. I'm using an N/A block (9.1:1 compression ratio) for a bit more off-boost power due to the higher compression ratio. With the leftover parts from my MKIII Supra, and once I tune it I should be at around 325-350rwhp.

So is a 3RZ, but it's more fun if you start threads for 20 year old stuff because you can't google...
I though everyone knew by now NOT to rebuild a CT20... Silly me.
"Dubbed a "sports car with a bed" in the October 1985 issue of Turbo, the factory turbocharged Toyota truck presented a performance windfall for the astute buyer of the day. Offered in pickups (regular and Xtracabs) and 4Runners motivated by the 22R-E four cylinder engine, the turbo option upped the ante 16.4 percent in horsepower and 23.5 percent in torque. The turbo engine generated 135 horsepower at 4800 rpm and 173 lbs-ft of torque at 2800 in 1985. The maximum boost setting for the Toyota CT-20 turbo in 1985 models was six psi. The 1988 model year was the last of turbo-four production, but a good many of these trucks are still on the road today.
As time rolled by, Turbo Engineering Center (TEC). Of Magalia, California found that the life expectancy of the CT-20 was in the neighborhood of 60,000 miles. When it comes time to replace or repair these units, Toyota only offers a replacement turbo for $1850-no service or repairs. TEC traced the CT-20's short life span to the routing of the oil supply line. The line ran directly under the turbine housing and was joined to it. This allowed a great deal of heat transfer and TEC believes oil was ultimately restricted which led to turbo failure. Another shortcoming of the Toyota turbo was the backpressure it produced. TEC tested a CT-20 and found at 9 psi there was 22 psi of backpressure and high exhaust gas temperatures. The conditions were ripe for failure."
