with a lot of money, WAY cheaper to turbo your corolla.

well, thats the prob. i cant turbocharge my car. apparently, its not turbo compatible and if i install 1 then it might burn out my valves or something of that sort, atleast thats what the mechanics r saying. if u have any info on that ill appreciate a response.

Have you considered trading for an XRS Corolla?

It may be a better starting point, there is more aftermarket available for the 2ZZ.

that's why people usually rebuild their engine internals to handle turbo..
