    Corolla 1.3L Turbo ( 4EFTE ) - but somehow, that rectangle aluminum that peeks through the bumper gives you a little hint of what's inside the hood.

    4AGE ST/BT Corolla

    3SGE ( 2.0L ) Corolla - May alam ako. Ex-taxi, white pa and black bumpers na may ganitong engine.

    A Lancer with a 4G63 engine.

    A Nissan with a SR20DET engine ^ like GH's ... :naughty2:

    CASA cars ?

    Subaru Forester XT. Looks are bland. But very powerful.

    Ford Focus TDCi, boring looks. Fast car.

    Hyundai Accent. Mukhang taxi, but impressive torque.

    Well, just an example lang. I couldn't afford it if I tried having one setup.

    The one I had only had a SR20DE motor dynoed at slightly over 150whp (roughly 175-180hp) and it was fast and fun.

    Ah hindi ba DET. Akala ko DET yung sayo. And I did remember reading one of your/niky's posts that DET's are harder to maintain as compared to DE's ? Mhmm, probably because of it being a turbo rather than an NA ?

    180hp is still 180hp. :naughty2: Can eat an SiR, alive.

    +1! based on experience, IMO, nothing beats a fully floored Accent Crdi driven by a fierced manong taxi driver as if there is no tomorrow. You could even hear the engine howling.....Scary!
