I never understand the thought behind people doing this. Makes no sense and provides no benefit. Crazy stuff. :eek:

There really is no debate. Toyota tuned the engine to run best on regular 87 octane so you are just wasting money. There is absolutely zero benefit to running premium. In facts some studies have shown that running premium in a car meant to run on regular can actually causes higher carbon...

I bought LED foglights instead of halogen. :cool:

Why are you putting premium in a Corolla? Nothing but a total waste of money. There are plenty of videos and stories of research on You Tube that have proven it. Use the lowest minimum octane that is recommended. I use premium in my Corolla but mine is turbocharged so the higher octane is needed...

Fog lights showed up!!!

Here is another great road near Lewiston, ID that is so fun. Here is a small section of it that you can see. Here is a good picture showing the "Tail of the Dragon" stretch that shows the layout of the famous road.

I ordered my fog lights and window vent visors for my new iM. :)

I'm so glad that cars from 2009 and newer don't even have to go through emission testing anymore here in Washington state.

I have hundreds of miles of great roads around Mt. St Helens here in Washington as well as many other roads in the Columbia River Gorge. There are so many I couldn't even begin to list them. The past 2 years I've driven across this great country in my 09 Corolla S and have enjoyed driving...

I've always found that Discount Tire has beaten prices from Costco by a pretty good amount and if you catch on of their sales you can regularly get an additional $160 back in rebates for buying 4 tires.

Better tires are always the best mod you can do. People don't realize how important it is to have the right tire for the right conditions.

They just take their labor rate per hour by how many hours the book says it will take to install the springs. That's why you do it yourself and the labor cost is zero!

First of all I would be running winter tires if you live in MA. Any place that has winter temps that stay below 45F most of the time as it does in MA while benefit greatly with winter tires. The only thing that touches the ground are your tires and if they don't have traction your brakes and...

So I bought my new 2017 Corolla iM with a 6-speed MT yesterday. The dealer was 125 miles away but they made it worth the drive as they had the best price by $1400. The MSRP was $19820 and the price was discounted to $16310 which was pretty sweet. My first choice was a blue one with silver as my...

I finally had a chance to finish my battery trunk install. Here are some pics. It turned out great and now I want to move my air filter forward to where the battery location used to be. I used this nut to ground the negative cable to the battery. This is after I cleaned off the paint for a good...

I would wash and clay the paint. Then use a mild polish to see if that takes the lines out that you can see. If not use a little more aggressive polish until you see them disappear. Then use a good sealant and then wax. I use Griot's Garage products and I have for years and they are amazing. And...

What a bummer! I buy Mobil 1 in the 5 quart jug for $22.88 at Walmart and no sales tax in Oregon!

First tip, it's spelled Corolla! ;) Congrats on the new to you car!

Headers to buy are from RPM. Here is a thread about them over on TN. http://www.toyotanation.com/forum/323-corolla-10th-gen-2nd-gen-matrix-engine-transmission-forum/387967-rpm-header-midpipe-group-buy-7-28-8-11-a.html

As I pointed out, if you want more power and more fun you can't go wrong with the turbo kit from Turbokits.com for under $3k. Nothing compares when it comes to $$$ per HP. The install was straight forward so you don't have to pay for any labor if you do it yourself. If you don't want to go this...
