In fact one of my worst tanks was all hwy doing 75 mph into a headwind & I only got around 31 mpg.

+1 When I had my S, I never had a tank below 30 as well.

A 2009 was rated for 27/35 for Auto and 26/35 Manual. And when it came out it had best in segment real world fuel economy beating out every other car easily.

Mpg is the new hp. had a guy in a sweet blown 5.4 cobra stop me in a parking lot asking about my rolla mpg.

Back on topic, any body know if the kit is really on sale/available?

+1 - Any more news on the kit, I know some guys said that it should be ready by the end of the year.

Did they release any dyno charts? videos or pics of the install?

I am so anxiously awaiting this

So, I would surmise that TK.com only finished 1 turbo kit?

[SuperchargedMR2]

I got an email from TK.com and they said the kit is almost ready! They need to see a Corolla to write up the installation manual for the Corolla & make sure that any details that are different between the Corolla & Matrix.

Anyone live close by that can go by & let them see your Corolla? If so contact TK.com & make an appointment so they can get this manual written. I told them that I would se if anyone was close to be able to help out.

Here is the email I got from them......

We are only a few weeks away from having the parts in stock.

One thing that is holding us up, is having a car to build the instructions from.

The bitterness of poor quality lingers long after the sweetness of cheap price is forgotten.

Congrats on getting the kit, uh..one step closer to being almost ready to buy. This has indeed been quite a while coming, almost a year and half now.


Perhaps I am confused, but when they were fabbing up the kit, fitting it, testing it, tuning it, wasn't it already on the car? Wouldn't it have been easier to write down the steps at that time...instead of having to work out the entire process all over again with yet another car?

Was wondering the same too.

Do they plan to sell it with preprogrammed engine management?
