Increasing car's performance

[Saket]

K well heres the deal, I like driving a lot, always wondered about increasing a car's performance, but never really learnt much. I just got my first car and i have absolutely no idea what to do with it. Before I listen to everyone and just spend a bunch of money buyin parts that will 'increase my car's performance' i really want to learn a little. Oh and I'm planning to install all of the parts i do buy myself whereever possible. Any suggestions any1? help would be appreciated thanks :)

Google

what are you asking? parts for your corolla? i wouldnt worry about increasing performance on that thing, maybe just some springs and a nice suspension set up so it at least feels fast :dunno:

[banned3x]

intake, exhaust and a jet chip then youll be flyin:burnout:

[jdmSiR]

Turbo it.

[KRyn]

A simple 125 shot of nitrous is your best bet to increase performance.

racing air in your tires

Lose weight if you can.

I'm disappointed...I expected to see funnier responses...I think Beyond is losing it's touch! :rofl:

But being serious now...there's not really a way you can just turn a Corolla into a rocket...

[Saket]

haha thanks dj_rice... im gonna get that rite now... and man adidas, are you serious? cuz ive heard from so many people that you can only have it set up but not akshulli hooked up...

Nothing is illegal until you get caught.

I recommend proper english lessons. If you plan on installing the parts yourself, you'll need to learn how to read the instructions.

However, you're just a troll... so har har. :zzz:

[Saket]

oh and i have another question... will my engine and chassis be able to handle any more power? cuz ive never really seen a modded corolla anywhere -_- haha and i realli dont want to fuck it up seeing as its a brand new car... haha

First thing you want to consider is, DO YOU WANT TO VOID YOUR WARRANTY

[Kona9]

Boring Troll at that. Your spelling of akshulli blew your cover.

Maybe that's telling you something. It's important to have the right platform to modify...

Why bother modifying it and losing your warranty then?

But I'm serious about losing weight if you can. I lost 20 pounds and now I can almost stay even off the line for a second or two with Civics that have loud exhausts in my old Nissan.

[03ozwhip]

akshilly? wtf? are you THAT bad at spelling? anyways, if youre gonna be on this site, youre gonna hear alot of I/H/E, these are the basics, if you dont know what that means, google it or search it through beyond.

[Saket]

well you dont always lose your warranty when you modify ride?... and im not going for anything that far out yet. LIke if i change the ECU that would make the warranty void for sure, but like somethings they dont care about too much do they?

:facepalm:


Why dont you call down to Toyota and ask them what you can and cant install that won't void your warranty cause obviously your a lost cause

[Saket]

haha i know wut I/H/E is ive been lookin into intakes and headers xD... and i should call toyota... haha thanks :P

What color is your car? White cars are faster, less lead used in the paint, therefore lighter, faster. Paint it white.

Serioulsy, if you wanted performance in your car why did you buy an '09 Corolla? If you wanted to mod a car you should have bought a nice pre-owned vehicle with a decent platform to build off of. That way you could do whatever you wanted without having to worry about warranty.

[gatorade]

make some speed holes on the hood

[bundi]

I don't know much about Corollas, but if you can get the Haynes book for your car it'll help you figure out where your flux capacitor is and how to tweak it for best performance... most Corollas are dialed WAY back for fuel economy and just need to be unleashed from what I have heard.


LOL @ racing air in the tires... are you trying to get this guy killed?? If you are going to be runnin racing air in your tires, then you NEED the supporting mods.. unless you have a big wing you aren't going to be creating enough downforce to keep you car steady...

[Kloubek]

What you want is a big spoiler on the back. Not the painted body-hugging kind either. You want a big unpainted aluminum wing. It will create awesome downforce on the back, which results in less pressure on your front wheels against the pavement. Less pressure = less friction, and less friction = more power.

No need for any other performance enhancer. A wing is all you need on a front wheel drive car. Give it a shot - you'll see.

Some responses are worthy in this thread, others worthless, dam Canuck fans :)

There just might be a chance that the OP is serious, was everyone on this board born with extensive vehicle knowledge?

I am all for the snapping and making fun of people in general and ask leo but in this section I think its better to leave out your 2 cents unless you plan on contributing positively.

Which way is the bandwagon?

And yes even trolls deserve a bit now and then LOL

Rice you made me laugh so your still good :D
