Hello all. I can't wait for this car to come out. Life long Honda owner and excited about what Toyota is doing. Already had a Civic Type R and decided I really want something AWD.

Welcome to the forum @thalilc13! Do you still have the Type R? Which year is/was it?

Hey @thalilc13, what other exciting cars have you owned?

Hey guys! Don't have the type R anymore. Started my own business and needed to downgrade until things are consistent. Rocking a sport hatch turbo with bolt ons and a flash. Still fun for now. Had nothing but Hondas with motor swaps before. Have a little project Del Sol with a H22 waiting to be finished up. Looking forward to this Corolla. It's above the new CTR for me just based on the drivetrain.

Any insight on the fuel system? That was the limitation on the type R that was so challenging. I still got to like 380/400. That's all I would want out of the Corolla. I still don't know much about the platform. Even the turbo. Haven't seen much anywhere. Any insight or links would be appreciated!

The beast before I had to let her go.

Toyota runs their D4S system for fuel injection which runs both direct and port injection, it's a blessing. A garage in Australia put Goleby's turbo kit on a GR Yaris with new valve springs, injectors, custom 3inch exhaust, Plazmaman intercooler and an ECU and the thing pushed almost 480 wheel on E85 with no issue and 362 on pump. I'm in the same boat, I want around 390-400 whenever I get the Corolla so getting to that target shouldn't be an issue with minor bolt-ons

Oh man that's a sweet Type R! Is that a wrap or paint job on it?

Thanks! Factory polished metal metallic. Filter makes it look really good in that Pic
