I emailed Crower Camshaft and asked them regarding Camshaft for the 3SFE engine WITH Turbo. Here is their answer

Regrinds on your stock cams are available. Specs are typically 10-15 degrees
more duration and .010"-.015" more lift. HP gains are in the 5-15 range
depending on tuning. Rough idle is common if we exceed the above figures.

Cost is $100 per cam. Allow 1 week shop time + shipping. Send cores along
with detailed note stating engine model, intended application, power adders
(turbo, NOS, etc), rpm range to address below.

Thanks for your interest in Crower,

> I have a Toyota 3SFE engine. I'm planning on turbo charging it. Do you have a cam for it?

Interesting. One question guys. WHO HAS A SET OF STOCK CAMSHAFTS FROM THE 3SFE ENGINE THAT HE IS NOT USING!!

I would suggest buying a new set to have them regrind. That's what my intentions will be when the time comes. I know its added cost, but better to start with something new than something used.

I doubt they sell NEW performance camshafts for the 3SFE engine. If anyone knows which company does, by all means, let us [me] know. Mean while, Crower has given me [us] an alternative. Don't you think?

You misunderstood me. I mean purchase new OE camshafts to have those reground. I've looked all over hell's half acre for a performance cam. I did find that one company lists the 5s-fe as having the same camshaft which I have to do some more checking into.
BTW. I emailed my Toyota dealership about the lightened flywheel and here was there response. :twisted:
Aaron,

We have great news! Sorry it took so long but Lonnie, Parts Specialist, had to make sure that he had the right information.

There are 2 different flywheels that match the 8 bolt pattern of the crank of your Rav4. The 3s-FE on the June 1990 to September 1991 model Toyota Camry and 3s-GTE of the August 1987 to July 1989 model Toyota Celica. The Camry part match is $270.76 plus tax and the Celica part match is $304.21 plus tax. Prices do not include shipping.

That's for stock. Fidanza has the listing for the Camry flywheel. Summit has it for about $380. Sounds good eh?
