hey i was just curious but would a lotus engine be able to fit and run in our celicas since the engine is toyota based. i know it would be super expensive, but i was just wondering when i was reading a magazine with a lotus in there that, would it be possible.

Yeah but there is something different about the ECU that gives it less HP or something. I'm not sure of the specifics but a guy in our Toyota club was bitching about how the Matrix XRS and the Celica GTS got 20 more HP or something than his Corolla XRS.
IDK - never really gave a $hit but I assume the motor is the same.

you can retune that with the hydra ems standalone like the in the vid, any 2zzge can put down those power numbers with similar mods to that one from the video.
