Mark Edwards Posted March 25, 2007 Posted March 25, 2007 After a lot of mucking about in the dark due to my impatience, i finally got my corolla manifold fitted friday night. For any of you thinking about doing this i can say it makes a big difference. Before it always seemed strangled above 4.5k, now it revs very freely right the way to the limiter. A well and truely worthy mod to do.The motec is now all wired in and is off to be mapped on thursday, so we'll see what i can get from this thing. Quote
oli_h Posted March 25, 2007 Posted March 25, 2007 lucky bastard wish i had an ecu i could do that with Quote
keirz Posted March 25, 2007 Posted March 25, 2007 good work. glad your happy with it and all the best on the ecu mapping. i would love one of them also. Quote
Mark Edwards Posted March 25, 2007 Author Posted March 25, 2007 I had it from the old car, it's vastly overkill for this engine, but as i've got it, i might as well make use of it. Even if i don't gain much power from it i should make big savings in the economy department. Quote
keirz Posted March 25, 2007 Posted March 25, 2007 i know what you mean mate. with our n/as its not gonna be massive gains but its the only way you can garantee that you are getting the best from your mods. Quote
Jozinobi Posted March 25, 2007 Posted March 25, 2007 Glad that you can feel the benefits of the corolla manifold Mark.Let us know how you get on once you get the motec properly setup.Will be very interesting to hear your results.Joz Quote
Mikey Jay Posted March 25, 2007 Posted March 25, 2007 Am I the only one who's had problems with the manifold?(car accelerating on its own, using 1.5 times the amount of fuel it used too, high idling) Quote

He's got a program that you input lambda, injector size and a few othere things into to give you a power figure and it's suprisingly accurate. Quote
