Also if u want to get even more power get those fake turbo sounds on eBay that's 10hp more!!!!!! Then put a special edition sine on the back and when u sell it that will double you money of what u paid for the car!!!!

....1997 Toyota Corolla upgrades???. Buy an intake save some money, then buy a car worth while? You are talking about an automatic TURD, and I mean no offense we have all been there, but save money find out what you like and buy something worth upgrading!


Coilovers= worthless

Performance mods=worthless...and non existent(Unless you want to spend more then I'm Sure you do)

Saving money to buy something worth TUNING= YOUR BEST BET!!!!!!!!


P.S. if you cant wait, tint it so you're not seen... Put a big stereo in it so you can't hear people laughing at stop lights!

LOL a friend of mine used to have a 4spd toyota tercel for his first car, same basic pos. We floored it at one end of the howard franklin bridge and it wouldnt hit 100mph with it floored all the way to the other end... Sell that POS and buy something else!

You've never seen the old 70s bugs souped up and tearing ass down a dragstrip? I'd say those are kind cool.
