Hi, just bought my first toyota and I bought a Matrix XRS. I plan on doing alot of mods to the car.

My question to other matrix owners is, what are your suggestions in the way of mods to the car right off the get go? Im thinking of a turbo, exhaust and wheels/rubber right out of the gate. Is that too much to begin with? Any recomendations regarding turbo kits?

Any suggestions would be most appreciative

Boosting the XRS is tough work.
11.5:1 compression is high.

Did you get an 03 or 04?

Plenty of intakes and exhausts available.

What's up there is alot of mods for the XRS many still in the works also. I personally am a TRD poster child. If you look at prices they seem kinda high, but I can give you a name of a dealer who has deals that are way lower the what TRD is asking. Good luck and enjoy.

i have a 2003 toyota matrix there is no point in the turbo the compersion ratio is to high you will only beable to run up to six pounds which is nothing in my matrix i have Aem cold air intake, greedy catback exhaust, aem true power pulley, a racing header and a vented carbon fiber hood with billet grill and carbon fiber tails and Hotchkis lower springs and trd front underbody sway bar and strut tower bar and 18" enkei rims with nitto tires and i the future i am planing on more as far as body and performance

CTmatrixXRS can u feel a diff. when u used the power pulley kit? I was thinking about getting a set but wasn't sure it would be able to pull me some hp's.

I suggest the TRD Supercharger, although the compression is too high to get out any really good numbers. :\
