isnt the 2zz motor a higher compression motor compared to the 1zz?

would that make a diff whether u are goin F/I ???

Well for forced induction it would be wise to have a slightly lower compression

yeah would be nice just to bite the bullit and go with a rex or something but lets remember the last comment made about modifying. I dont see a rex that is booosted with all the go hard a frak stuff being "designed" to handle that just has an initial advantage but stuff will wear out on that eventually too. Thats my 2 cents.

Oh and N/A power FTW!!! cheaters and your boost.... full of hot air :lol:

and proud of it :P :P :P :P :P :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

i guess ive entered this discussion like 1000 times now .... Y the corolla is wat everyone asks me ??????

well simply put .... 2 b different .... and because its practical ......

nothing against the other cars but i couldnt c myself in a rexy or a evo or a mps ..... i dont mind those cars and they deserve all due respect but none of them are the car for me ......

until i find something else that tickles my fancy ill enjoy my cold air ........ u forgot specialized32 my setup consists of a FMIC :P :P :P :P :P

Whats the estimated amount of tourqe a stroker kit produces? I find it very interesting.

given the change in displacement I would think it up to ~200nM, probably just bellow.

For the expense, the hassle and mostly for the relaibility issues, I would be selling the Corolla and getting a Rex or a MPS. The Corolla sportivo is deisgned for 143kw. That means that the engine internals, gearbox internals, driveshaft, Fuel system, engine mounts, engine internals, cooling system, etc is all deisgned around an engine that makes 143kw at the flywheel. 150kw atw means about 200kw at the flywheel.

My problem would be reliability. Once you start getting these numbers, then you will start seeing the life of other components that you haven't stregnthened, seriously deteriorate. Eventually it becomes an unrelaible money pit. If you want a car that has 200kw then let the manufacturer spend millions in development work to make sure everything is strengthened.

I have been down this path before and invested tens of thousands. It went faster than a turbo porsche, but there is a reason those things cost 300k. Anyhting more than intake, exhaust and chip, and you had better have a good mechanic and lots of spare cash in the account. It might take a while to start to see the effects, but once you strengthen one thing, then somehting else becomes the weakest link. You will also never be able to sell it.

Just my humble opinion.

:clap::yahoo::toast:

I share the same view.

I agree too......but then again..it is still fun to turbo the corolla while it lasted.. :P
