85 le

I have a 85 corolla le 1.6. I would like more horsepower without swapping the engine. What parts should I get to add horsepower. Please include links if possible.

Thanks for your help

Only thing you may and that is may add is a turbocharger. Other than that, a higher quality air filter, different spark plugs, but your power gain will not be much, unless you swap out the engine.

You're welcome. K/N sounds good. I'm not aware of any performance parts for your car. You may be better off getting a Corolla Sport or FX/16 as a second car.
