Faster, Lighter, Louder = Just plain Better

at idle im steady at 1k. when I start the car it jumps to 2k or more then drops suddenly down to 500 or so before it almost dies then kicks itself back to 1k rpm. note this all happends within a seccond or so. is this normal. kinda like when you start your car to show off to the hot girl across...

I got memphis front-back w/ comp. dual voice 12" sub being pushed with a 5 chanel amp. I guess it just how loud you want to go :-)

ive look on the net with no straight answers. I have a slight knock at idle on a 2006 XRS 1.8 2ZZ @ 114k. been maticulately serviced before I had purchaced @ 110k. it not the primary source of the knock since it seems to be coming from the low end. Why I ask though, if anyone can help with a...

I straight piped my xrs w/ a turdown tip and a k&n intake. sound nice and it hidden underneath. It screams pretty loud though at 7-8k rpm. thinkn of making a 90° bend and cuting a whole in the side in front of rear wheel.

I know i want one. It has to be better sounding, looking, and defiantly out perform a stock exaust. toyota has to conform to noise tolerance emission etc which restricts flow of exhaust gasses reducing hp.

its always good habit to warm up a car before driving. i wait until the needle moves a lil off the C on the water temp gauge. most wear on an engine is on startup and before engine reaches operating temp. as for shake in 2ed 3ed. check mounts, check normal things, look at wheel and input shaft...

lol...so it turnes off after it blinks a few times when the car is started. if that the case it normal it your mil lamp doing it thing during startup. if it bugs u enough take out the bulb from behind the instrument pannel that conected to that warning light

that sounds logical enough. but increased cool clean air and more fuel mixed at the right % and ignited, u get get a better charge. Now if it indeed trickz the system that there is more air when there isnt. you would run rich because everything else would be compinsating for more air. I would...

New to toyota. big car guy/mechanic. any tips for this car to get me started off right

22 city 30 hwy so if u stay at 65 or so 30mpg. 30 mpg is damn good considering the power increase. witch will be there when u need it:-)

I think they say like 28. they way I drive makes me a bad candidate for that test. you have to run premium but id say it worth it. especially coming from a full size chevy w/ 9" lift 36" tires lol.

vavle knock or low octane knock is common. depending on the level of knock. at 120k it possible to have to re-torque them but not a good idea unless a must do since the groves and wear patterrn created after 120k would change might cause more harm. ive herd bran new cars knock. if it constant...

no way I just bought a 05 yesterday. mine just had a new clutch put in by toyota before i bought but i know it was 1500. if your going aftermarket id be interested to see what you decide on.

it depends. how loud. how old the car, clutch. if it minor sound your fine but might look into new slave cylinder.
