Shelter-in-place is making people argue about weird things.

I just wanted to see if I'm not some sort of dinosaur where there was some magic potion being sprinkled on these 4 bangers that would make these gains plausible.

Yeah, none of that matters.

Can you give me some more information on the car and engine? Cams? VVT? Variable lift?

If it’s a VVT motor with direct injection and a healthy sized exhaust cam, I don’t doubt a full bolt on cam, with those (what I assume to me) flow optimized header, could net 30whp.

What do other cars baseline at?

People dyno corollas?? I own a corolla, I've never even bothered to look up the specs.

He's claiming to have made an extra 20HP by switching to a cold air intake and putting the exhaust back on his car.

Why not?

You saw what I saw. Instead of laughing, prove him wrong.

I have no way of doing that, sir.

Of course! With a small amount of power, every last pony is all the more significant!

I know when I had my '13 Mustang GT, the manual said 420hp*

*when using 93 octane fuel.

In Oklahoma for example, it's supremely hard to find stations carrying 93. I think in the whole OKC metro area, there are 3 stations?

Because who cares? Is there some kind of spec corolla racing class out there or something I don't know about? I care about the hp rating of my corolla about as much as I care about the hp rating of my blender.

Then again I'm sure there's people out there who love getting every last pony out of their blenders and more power to them.

Toyota tuning is similar as 80 year granny getting a boob job.

Call me crazy, but let people mod what they want to mod. A lot of places, even a used F series is substantially more expensive than a new compact car. For more people, it doesn’t make sense.

Came back to this thread to post this. 257hp, 266lb-ft from 1.6l (although shocked to see Corolla is 3060lbs).

Ok.... that's not the car in the OP though so...

I don't personally care if someone wants to dyno or mod a corolla. They are free to do whatever they want, but at the same time I'm free to think it's weird.

[Tambohamilton]

I think we're all pretty weird, compared with the majority of society to whom a car is something you sit in to go somewhere and nothing more

[PoorLurker]

And it doesn't even have vtech? I think he's lying.

I'm still surprised to have learned of the existence of a corolla forum. Never knew people dyno and mod corollas for performance. Even more surprised OP is part of that club lol

You must be new to the internet. Car-specific forums are a way for owners to share experiences, troubleshooting, tips, information, etc.
