What is it that causes our engines to be so under powered? Is it the ECU's, or what?

i dont see the big hype about the celica gts, its only got the 180hp at 7,600 rpm , at its peak
2 of my friends bought celicas , both autos, one a gt, one a gts the gt had intake and exhaust and the gts was stock and the gt won the intake and exhaust was probably cheaper than the cost to upgrade to GTS now if you want the car sure the extra 40 hp is nice but remember because of vvti-l its only at its peak that it gets such a gain |
