ive done tons of research work on how to get more power for this car and there are some parts that increases hp just a little bit, but ive come to the conclusion that theres is no way (unless someone comes up with a bolt on turbo kit) to really increase the power of the corolla all the way up we all dream about. today i saw a subaru brz pulling out from a stop light as the tires were screaming "hell yeah" and i told myself "i wish my car can do that". lets just face it guys, as much as we love our cars, they are just very slow, i dont think i will ever hear my car burning tires. like the reviews said this car is for "the patience driver". i love the car (outside) and people tell me that it looks awesome with the rims painted black and the "firestone" letters painted white. but other than that, toyota didn't left any room for improvement. im sad about it cuz its my very first car and im very disappointed. from my point of view, the only thing left to do is trade in the car for something else.
