Hi, I have a Celica st205. Already I have done alot of work to the car, from suspension to front mount intercooolers. Im now ready to make a start on the internals and maybe a hybrid turbo conversion or a twin turbo conversion. Cars running around 300ish bhp but im wanting to push it to around 450ish. Can you adivce? or point me in the direction of someone who could help. Thanks

I have a 2009 toyota corolla xli with a 1300cc but 8000rpm. I have installed iridium plugs, intake,wider tires for grip,voltage stablizer and ground wiring. There was a performance increase. My engine is VVTi . what would be your recommendation to make it more faster in terms of acceleration. top speed is 240km. i can sacrifice that easily as limit is 140km.

Since Pontiac supercharged engines are lower compression what’s the risk of blowing an engine by adding a supercharger??
Thanks

@Freeman 3: yes you need back pressure on the engine but even with a free flow cat you have to much back pressure. btw for turbo’s they create there own back pressure on the engine, so a nice short side out let directly from the turbo will create the largest boost on the engine

@Daz: you’ve got a VTEC engine, yes you can do all the stuff and it will pay off (most standard vtec’s crushes 2000 or more cc’s engines)

@Alex: use the VR6 from VW (thats a V6) and yes this fits a Golf 2.

You can add more air into rotary engines and thats with porting (Street-, bridge-, J-,P-port) and the offcourse a banger of a turbo ;D or you can add more rotors (max 4) and that will give you (together with a big turbo) +-1600hp (see youtube: Queen Street Racing Quad Rotor)

i read your article for the naturally aspirated portion. i have a 95 lesabre 3.8l that i want to continue to up grade. later today 6/19/08 i will have the engine management reprogrammed. I already started with a high performance muffler, and k and n filter. I wanted to find out if a high flow catalytic converter is needed. I already put a new cat on from a Tuffy shop. do you think this is needed or if the back pressure should not be a problem now
