  1. even thought i do like the corolla i suggest getting the new scion tc it is a nice car and they found a great balance between the price and quality.

    I disagree - The scion is smaller and slower than the Corolla...

  2. well, I didnt know they did a WRX in a hatchback - I thought the WRX was only in the saloon..

    Oh, and you cant compare the two. The Scooby is a 4-door, 4-wheel drive, 2.0 Turbo (with a flat four) - not to mention, significantly more expensive..

    And yes, it has dramatic styling - but that doesnt mean its any better ;)

  3. generally, you'll either go to a modification company, or a repair/paint shop...

    as for the fit and qualitiy - well, you get what you pay for, if you buy a cheap kit, it wont fit too well and will have large panel gaps. If you want a good paint finish, then dont go to the cheapest place..

  4. well, those 70 buck things are no more than a electric fan on an induction kit, and you'd get better performance from fitting a hamster wheel to your engine..

    As for actual turbo chargers, well they do work very well, you just need to ensure your manifold/exhaust can take the extra heat, and anything above a 10-15% performance increase, you should consider strengthening the internals of the engine...

    Other than that, its a case of making sure its mapped properly, and thats about it..

  5. I don't know if this helps or not, but the speedometer reading is pulled up from an increase in rpms, and the brakes are very tempermental. Does this all indicate a vacuum problem?

    Wade

    What do you mean by the speedo statement? is that different.

    I would not say the brakes are related to the intake at all..
