There was a limited edition Corolla sold over here with a TTE Supercharger fitted from the Factory with 213bhp.... and that still cant beat a Civic Type R on the track which is a shame as I love to see Toyota models beating their equivalent Honda.
Out of curiosity are you sure every Celica you see on the track is the 2ZZ-GE engine? I'm not sure what trims were sold there, but there's a lot of the 1ZZ-FE engines in the Celica.

According to Autozone, something like 89% of Celicas are the GT trim, the rest 2ZZ-GE.

I think that the GT was the reason the Celica failed. You shouldn't sell a great car and market it for the lower engine...
