I just got a corolla fx 16 87 from my brother with a blown head gasket it came with a spare motor both are blue tops is there anything I can do while I have the motor out to squeeze a little more out of this I noticed it has throttle blades in the intake can you take this out or do I even want to try there are so many hoses ant shit is anything I can eliminate. any info would be appreciated.

 

also the tranny quit going into fifth for the third time someone told me there is a teflon peice in the shifting area of the tranny that needs replaced. the first time they got my brother for a rebuild. if anyone knows what to do let me know

 

sure plenty of stuff, why not just go with some easy bolt ons? header, exhaust...

u could rebuild it. depends on what kinda money u r talking about. just like any motor really, club4ag has all the answeres to ur questions and any u could possibly think of.

 

mr2 aw11 ecu
mr2 aw11 distributor/or megasquirt distributorless ignition system
denso or bosch plugs
header
intake filter element (cone+adapter)
port/polish////3angle
unorothodox crank pulley
egr elimination (bullshit thing that goes from intake manifold to exhaust manifold)
charcoal can elimination
catalytic converter removal
20v itb's
hks/pdm cams
trd flywheel
illegal garage clutch
red top injectors
bore fuel rail
de-swingplate the maf
tap weld throttle butterfly/or/drill pin hole in throttle butterfly
carb it----like me
trd springs and valves
hks/wiseco pistons

and a couple other wastes of time cause the blue top will never hit more than 170 whp na

go high comp redtop or 20v or blue top bored turbo


i hope that helped

 

would it be easier to put a 50 shot on it ?

 

hahahaha

no

you will be swapping motors once again


just do the aw11 ecu and aw11 distributor with a nice set of spark plugs, msd igniton wires, msd blaster coil,egr elimination,charcoal canister elimination,throttle body drill,maf de-plate,header,and intake filter element


thats a nice setup

itll cost around 500 for everything


i hope that helped

 

how can I tell if the dist I have is aw11 the spare motor is from mr-2 will it have aw11 stamped on the distributor I cant find these numbers on it I also had the ecu but it was full of ants from sitting outside so I threw it in the dirt. and drilling A hole do you mean in the throttle blade ? thanks for the info this sounds more along the lines of what I may want to tackle also it needs a clutch any suggestions on that ?

denso or bosch plugs


um, don't use Bosch, use Denso or NGK, bosch suck in toyota's. my blue hat ran like crap on bosch platnium, but ran like a champ on regular ngk. leave the bosch for the Nazi mobiles(german cars)

 

any thing from a 4ag mr-2 is aw11 that is the chasis code for the mr2 of that style

don't drill anything leave the butterflies where they are they give you low end torque which is much needed in these cars where there is almost none

go with a cai like a k&n or something comprable

headers are a nice touch but even better is a 2.25" inch cat-less exhaust

and get some 4agze injectors they are plug and PLAY

 

aw11 distributor is direct line wires aimed at plugs with a heat shield

and drilling a pinsize hole in the butterfly allows more air blah blah higher idle

illegal garage clutches i have heard props from and will be ordering one myself shortly

and i have an adapter plate and cone filter for the intake setup for sale for $15 but your picking it up
