Engine swap. Choice of 4AGE 16v Bluetop, 4AGE 16v Redtop, 4AGZE 16v Supercharged, 4AGE 20v Silvertop, or 4AGE 20v Blacktop (with opt. of 5 or 6spd).

4AGE motors have quite a few upgrades... And they're all motors that requires no custom fitting (all same 4A blocks).

I doubt if it would make a worthwhile difference. The intake tracts are smaller on your engine, so it will still choke down.

Look here for the most practical swaps.

Engine swaps for the AE92 Corolla

Apart from a swap, turbo will be the next choice.
Jmaz has done a turbo job on his sedan, with a good write-up on here, do a search or just PM him.

I am pretty happy with my 7A-FE swap. It gives better response than the original 4A-GE, and has the same HP.

Don't hold me to this, but I think if you got the right year 7A-FE, your current ECU and wiring would run it with no problem and no other modification.
