rice(er) teaser

sup guys, i'm still here! been months since i've logged on. It's still gonna be a while until i straighten things up. Next time you see the red machine, it'll be dressed up a bit *wink. And hopefully hit 15s *evil laff.

untill then, here's a little of what lil ol rice(er) has been up to.

Headers?

Some weight reduction, heavy suspension mods and grippy tires and that little red machine of yours is a legit threat! 15's for damn sure.

Good stuff. You gonna get a tune or ECU toy to get some power outa the I/H/E, or just bolt and go? Then again...I dunno anyone that tunes Corrolas, so...? Also, that vid in your sig is quite possibly one of the creepier things I've ever seen.

Is that a foam filter? If so, I hope you don't mind a ton of crap getting in your engine. Other than that, some great choices. However, why not relocate the battery to the trunk since it's a sealed battery? Better weight distribution and more room in the engine bay.

Just an idea.

My first thought was "This should be interesting" :lol:



A step in the right direction here though.

I second the battery relocate. It seems like the corolla (as well as other cars) have a tiny little hole where air is supposed to be able to come up from under the car into your air system. That is a cool looknig short ram intake but it is probably still going to suck in hot air.

Nice mods. Looks like your car is coming along...

Neato.

Run your sh*t and love it! Thats what its all about.

Is that a plastic case around your foam intake? In other words...your new intake is as restrictive as your original one...true or the opposite of false?

I think that plastic is supposed to be a heatshield

I figured...however, when it fully encompasses the intake...it kinda defeats the purpose of switching to an open element intake in the first place.

Unless the design was for the opening to be pointed in the direction where the coldest air in the engine bay is found, which seems to be the case here, if it was fully opened he might actually lose power due to it sucking in only hot air. With the design he has atleast he is sucking in concentrated cooler air as opposed to just hot air from all around.

Its and intake! it'll suck in enough cfm for the size engine he has, no need to bust his bollas.
