the work is being done by myself and another corolla enthusiast by the name of shubert.

as for my goals, they are show and go. we are going to be looking at cutting it off around 300-350whp which is good enough for me. there are definately easier ways of doing it, but i did want to build a "one off" car. as celicas, ya'll are at least looked at as sports cars but as a corolla owner, we are looked at as grocery getters and not performance machines even though we pretty much share the same engine bay.

i can tell you that it has been a PITA to keep it twincharged. I am on my third gze because of the problems with the setup before. we had to do some serious modifying to get the supercharger to stay on with that big port intake. we banged in the firewall to create some clearance for the sc since its cocked back a pretty good ways. we also had to modify the intake plenum of the sc, and the sc mounts to get it all to fit.
