I've got a few videos you may find worth watching. First is the cluster of a Starlet slightly modded. Notice how quickly the speedometer climbs even at high speed.
Get on the toyotagtturbo.com board and find someone in your area with a Starlet or Glanza that will show you what a 4efte does. I'm not trying to make you feel bad or anything but seriously these 3ee engines are not power houses. I don't care what fuel you put in them.
U will need to build some sort of housing to house them, then start driving and light em up. U can get way more HP! They arent that expensive either, around 5$ for 3 stage - which burns for like a few minutes.
You can also simply grind em up and mix em with fuel and stick that into ur fuel tank. Thats bound to produce a result.

I think he does it as a joke. I find all his posts very funny. If you guys keep slamming him he won't post these BS videos anymore. Just think of how boring The Nation would be if all we talked about was repairing and legitimate tuning? lol, food for thought.

Holy crap! Talk about a sleeper car... you could make a fortune racing one of those against unsuspecting folks!
The bad thing noah is that those vids aren't maxed out tuned engines but just slight mods like a manifold, good wastegate and upgraded exhaust. Less than $600 mods on a $1000 engine swap. I had the 4efte in my car for a few years and I have to say it was much fun to outrun cars that totally don't see it coming. It wasn't something to run the 1/8 mile but the 1/4 was ok. On the long runs it really shined though. Rolling out the sweepers at Roebling Road racetrack then onto the 1.75 mile straight where you could wind the snot out of it and stay on the tail of a 911 Porsche was a blast.
My 4efte had a 3" exhaust with tuned muffler and a cheapo ebay air filter. I tend to think the cams may have been reground at one time but waiting to see evidence. I saw top end over 140mph on a closed track. 40-100mph it would eat a GT mustang as if it had gravy poured all over. Nothing with a Honda emblem ever showed me the tail lights unless boosted or sprayed.
