It’s a 2020 corolla with a 1.8 L engine. 2023 carollos have the 2 L engine high output. If you want the most horsepower see if a 2 L will drop in.

as i know full well they often go hand in hand... an engine that CAN pull harder doesnt have to work as hard to move the car nor does it have to work neerly as hard to get the car going from a stop the real change with bigger is fuel per min at idle....more often than not under load you can go a good bit bigger before you hit diminishing returns ive done alot of experiments with v8s all in the same car and found that 1-1.5 liter (anything up to 100CID)or so could net anything up to 3mpg gains under all uses but stayed the same below 25mph ..hard launches wa sthe other place where MPG was found as you needed less input for MORE output....i also played alot with gear ratios and again found the same results, you could gear the bigger engine to get even more at any given spot.... basicly the rule i found was you need to match the :engine size and torque band to the weight, drive style, and gearing....tho gearing was much less of a concern if the car got lighter or more aerodynamic the only reason they stuff ultra tiny engines in alot of the little cars is to fill the "niche" of emissions in x country...look at the rolla..prime example, .3 bigger engine getting BETTER mpg than a yaris at more than 1000lbs heavier and not really any better aero getting considerably better mpg i wonder if a 2020 is the same as the early teens |
