2008 SE 4cyl 5spd
Hi all,
I just drove home from the dealership in my brand new Magnetic Gray SE 2.4 with a manual gearbox. It's got a sunroof too. Not as fast as the Magnum 3.5 I traded in for it, but definitely more confidence inspiring in the handling department. I took a serious hit on trade in value for the Mag, but in the long run I think I made the right move.
So, I used to tune a civic back in the day. Are there any of you who have tuned the 2.4 engine in the new Camry? Intake, exhaust, short-throw shifter, fuel pressure, ignition timing, etc??? Looks like it's got a pretty good base to work with. What's available? What's recommended? Where do I begin to look? (besides just the "search" button?)
Thanks,
Ryan

Why didn't you just opt for the v6? 268 HP and you won't need those mods.

...and 4-cylinders are so much easier and less expensive to mod IMHO.
