I just read an review in the June 2/04 "Durham Wheels" section about the Corolla XRS. It seems that "unofficially" the TRD folks have hinted that a TRD supercharger kit may be in the works for the Corolla XRS.

Estimations are 230hp @ 4000rpm.

One word: w00t! :thumbup:

Definately Cool!!

Who will make it? TRD? I know Blitz already makes the Compressor Kit.

 

[rolla-XRS]

Yeah it was rumoured to be a TRD kit.

i can't imagine it'll allow for much boost...the compression's too high to begin with.

Durham wheels eh.. where you at?? I'm in the 'shwa.

I read that article too.. They had a couple of SC'd XR's but they were automatics. :disappoin

 

[RollaThatRocks]

It will never happen.

 

[rollatuner110]

They make too many things for the 2zz, they need to start making more for the 1zz. I know a lot of people would agree.

Ajax. Someone in Pickering dropped the article on my desk at work.

Yeah my thoughts exactly...a SC automatic? What a waste IMHO.

Huh? You're joking right? There's alot more for 1zz engines and virtually nothing for 2zz. Please prove me wrong becuase I'm still looking for 2zz stuff.

This may sound like a dumb question, are there any supercharger kits for corolla S 2004s?? are they only from TRD?

 

[REN69]

by asking.. "are they only from TRD?" you pretty much answered both questions yourself.

The problem with finding parts for both the 1zz and 2zz is that you are looking for them to go in a Corolla. The aftermarket support for both engines is decent, but more stuff is out there for the 2zz (for instance the choice of CAIs and headers, there are definitley more offered for the 2zz)
The thing is these parts are mostly only offered for the Celica application. And also for the MR2 Spyder. Hell it seems like even the matrix has more support than the Corolla, but that might help because I think the engine bays are almost identicle between the Matrix and 03+ Corollas. I don't know about the exhaust though.

if they're running 3 PSI, should be fine, just not worth it for that amount.

Corolla XRS only comes in 6spd manual....

^oops my bad, didn't read rens post:

 

[REN69]

Ichi.. stop reading the posts by looking thru the beer bottles. :lol: :lol:

 

[jhbhatia]

s/c NEVER gonna happen for the 2zz.

 

[dark_serphen]

rumour is rumour....but will u sure that it would have enough room to fit under the xrs hood?

or maybe xrs sc kit has discription 230 hp... but was that the motor or @ wheel? or just the number?

i believed that the 2zz has lift already...so the sc shouldn't be working..

 

[rolla-XRS]

Yeah that was my original thought too....ie: too good to be true for 2zz.

But it's nice to dream after you see that in print.

The lift happens because of a lot of different variables - if I remember correctly it is based on the air temperature/load and when you add any type of forced induction it cools the temperature of the air down and hence the lift doesn’t happen - this can be re-programmed - but you must also remember that you have a 8200rpm redline and many other engine improvements over the basic 1.8(1zz I think)
