Assuming that you plan to keep the engine naturally aspirated, there isn't too much else you can do to optimize the engine and keep it running reliably. Unless... you have very deep pockets and you don't intend to rely on it as a daily driver.

trdfire · Postby **trdfire** » January 30th, 2009, 8:07 am

hey man
do you mind if i ask
how much you paid for the engine and where you got it?

Zeriam · Postby **Zeriam** » January 30th, 2009, 10:06 am

a ST 20v starts at about 4500-6000 depends on where u go and who u know

trdboy · Postby **trdboy** » January 31st, 2009, 3:14 pm

cold air intake, after market extractors, freeflow exhaust, after maket cams and pulley, lightened flywheel,port and polished head,after market ecu, proper wiring and tuning(air fuel ratio)...........well u did ask how to get it to run good right.....and well most importantly talk to corolladude cuz dat sheit does wuk!!!

Postby **eliteauto** » February 3rd, 2009, 9:55 am

^^port and polish not necessary just deburr the castings, head is already well done from stock, try the proper fuel first and see the results i.e. 100 octane :twisted:

Metallicork · Postby **Metallicork** » February 3rd, 2009, 12:54 pm

which castings? Any pics of that corollalover101? The proper fuel is 100 octane.....? Is dat even premium? I was thinking how the super would run in the engine because that premium really killing we pocket!!!

corolladude · Postby **corolladude** » February 4th, 2009, 1:08 am

allyuh... i NEVER run premium in my 20v..... and no probs...

Postby **eliteauto** » February 4th, 2009, 1:39 am

corolladude, share the wealth of knowledge please

Metallicork · Postby **Metallicork** » February 4th, 2009, 8:54 am

corolladude, you never run premium? Anyone knows what this engine is supposed to run on... time is money or in this case....gas....!

Postby **eliteauto** » February 4th, 2009, 9:15 am

Engine was designed and is to ideally run on 100 octane gas, to compensate for our 95 Premium and 92 Super the ECU dumps fuel to prevent detonation but of late I've been knocking so I may have to retard timing or start back using octane boosters

biller, my car is stock so I can't offer much except to advise you to do proper maintenance, use a good oil and ensure electricals are in order, I guess you would have gotten more advice if you had a 4E-FTE, seems most 20V guys are pretty happy just being stock, try :google:

and there a sticky above with some links that may help you, it's where I get most of my help

trdboy · Postby **trdboy** » February 7th, 2009, 10:57 am

like cl101 the stock engine is good enough just keep it properly maintained, after market parts are real expensive for the 20 valve but if u have the money go for it!!

Postby **eliteauto** » February 7th, 2009, 12:02 pm

trdboy, the Trueno badge on your bonnet will slow you down, take it off and sell me and add some HP nah

trdboy · Postby **trdboy** » February 7th, 2009, 12:35 pm

haha, boy check ebay i see them selling for like 10 dollars, all i did was was take out mine from the old bumper and stick it on the bonnet

Zeriam · Postby **Zeriam** » February 7th, 2009, 4:19 pm

Going on de boat to Tobago is no problem..........about getting yuh car damaged. I have taken my car at least once a year. Even my bike that weighs 622lbs goes also!
Just watch your proximity to other cars and the walls of the boat. Close your mirrors. There are some people who would try to squeeze through the smallest opening for a shortcut, with studs on their clothes, and a bag with 4" nails poking through it. They hardly care about the $500-a-quart paint on your bonnet !
But I still think yuh safe.
