You can do an engine swap to a 3S-GTE turbo engine, a 4E-FTE engine or 5E-FTE turbo build on your current engine. The first set up will take a lot of fabicating and cutting the frame rails. the second should be an easy fit since it is used in Tercel and Paseo are the same cars with different styiling. The least expensive way is to turbo your engine- that's the . It will easily give you an extra 50-60 hp extra, but I would only recommend that if you are ready to build up your engine to handle the turbo's additional pressure. Being a 1992, I'm assuming that you have over 100K miles on your car. If so, you'll need to build your engine with stronger internals before you add a turbo. If you use stock internals and the engine has less than 100K miles, you can run around 6-7 psi of boost without any problems. That should be good for about another 30 horsepower and the torque will be impressive. These are the items you will need:
turbo CT-9 with manifold
downpipe
thermostat housing
oil pan
oil relocator
intercooler w/ brackets
injectors with fuel rail
Good luck.
