They say with money, anything is possible. I honestly want to know if anyone here would actually swap out our motors with somthing from the honda offering etc....? Im a toyota purist myself and wouldn't do it actually, but i cant deny the power that the b-series and k-series are capable of. I respect a well designed motor. Or how about the transverly mounted sr20? Tell me your thoughts on this matter.

TOTALLY! The friend with the RX-7 had a first gen Eagle Talon sleeper when I met him (about 11 years ago). Though it's not as sleeper as a Corolla. It looked bone stock unless you looked close at the giant intercooler behind the bumper. It was an 11 second car that he drove around everyday and then tore apart and rebuilt every winter. I think he was pushin out around 25lbs of boost and 600hp a few years later when he finally parted it out and left DSM as a distant memory. That would be sick in a 4-door Corolla sleeper.
