celica with a 1.4 ecotech turbocharge engine?? - 6G Celicas Forums

It may peak at 138hp but it's got 200ft/lb from like 2200 RPM to 5000 RPM and is high efficient. But it's not worth swapping with all the special custom work involved. You'd be further ahead buying th...

Ok. It's a nice compact engine that has an amazing torque table (not even a curve, just has torque the whole time in boost) and great fuel economy. Problem will be mating it to any Toyota transmission...

The end of the coil touching the next coil is normal since it's not a full coil being compressed, make sense?

Find and buy the muffler and resonator you want, go to a muffler shop, ask them to install the items with new piping from the cat-back. I suggest magnaflow products, they sound nice and last well.

Nah, carb cleaner won't hurt the injector o-rings. They're fuel rated rubber so a little dousing won't harm them.

No, it could still be a A/F issue if there's a vacuum leak at ONLY that cylinder. Highest vacuum is at idle so you'd see it acting up more then than say when driving or accelerating. A bad injector O-...

If it's running properly otherwise it's probably not a compression issue. It could be as simple as an injector o-ring leaking vacuum on that one cylinder even.

Check compression before you just go throwing money at it, if you have a mechanical issue then plugs and wires and caps won't fix it. Check inside the cap for fouling and carbon tracking, check the wi...

That was awkward to do alone.
Looks like about 66 inches. I measured from the sill to the center console, 30 inches, then the center console is 6 inches wide, and another 30 on the other side.

When you mistrike and the head breaks off, you'll wish it was a plastic handle. They also recoil differently when you mistrike. Try a good one, you'll love it.
