It seems that most people today want something for nothing -- a cheap car than handles extremely well and has over 500 hp. That's what really gets me about this topic. This car is fine as is. The designer at Toyota said if he put more HP into the car, he'd have to redesign the whole car including structure and suspension to have it as balanced as he would want. Besides, they just did add 5hp. Isn't that enough????????????

The car is fine as is... before smog regulations and the torque dip. I keep hearing a header and a tune makes it just right. Not a monster, but not just “adequate”. I understand regulations and why they are there. It’s just too bad a supercharger can be legal, but overkill just to legally fix the dip. I’d buy a low powered, less expensive SC if it did the same perf and a good header and tune.
