Niiiiice, welcome to the turbo world

I call BS until I see some shots of it installed. Considering the fact that NO other turbo-kits.com kit has fit any Corolla that I've ever seen, and they are known for very low quality, and the 2ZZGE is a VERY sensitive engine to boost, I tend to doubt it!

What are you using for fuel management?

I'm with you on the BS. Also, RPMs don't win races.

I agree, total bullshit. A pic of a kit and a wild claim of beating an SRT-4 is way out there.

If he really installed it he'd be proud enough of a few days worth of work and post some pics of that, or at least talk about it.

Turbokits.com is known junk parts anyway. They cobble and hack shit together and rip off kids who just saw the Fast and the Furious and want a turbo all of a sudden but don't wanna research it.

One guy over at www. tih gen corolla .com build a custom turbo kit for his XRS, and he had a ton of issues with tuning due to lift, but his car is now hella-fast after months of hard work. He documented the whole thing as well with pictures and updates.

One post, 3 sentances long, is way too little to back up that kind of work.

Wow I went to turbokits.com what a bunch of morons. They sell kits for the "03-06 Corolla SRX" and the "03-06 Corolla SR".

Funny thing is that the engine bays on the 03-04s are different from those on the 05-06s. And the XRS did not even come out until 05

I would not buy anything from a company too dumb to call out cars correctly. They obviously have no research and developement.

Bullshit confirmed.

WTF is that, even his wording is f'd up and sounds like a bot or advertisement. How can you go from "there's now a turbo kit for my car" to "my car feels fast" ?!?!?!?

519 · 01-02-2006, 10:47 AM

^^ "my car feels hella fast..."

Sargeant_002 · 01-03-2006, 10:34 AM
