Chips/Enahancements for the 2.4L

Post by Hardrocker »

I just bought my 2009 GT yesterday, and am already wondering if anyone has looked around for performance enhancers for the 2.4L engine. I haven't pushed the engine yet, I only have 94 miles on it, but am thinking that it is capable of a lot more than 158 hp.This engine is the same one that has been used in the Camry and other Toyota vehicles for years, so performance tweaks have likely been tried.Any ideas?

There's probably not much available yet. You could get some idea by searching for parts from the other Toyotas with the same engine. Lightened pulleys, CAI, exhaust, header, fuel management systems (Camcon, Greddy Emanage, Unichip).

You can check out some Scion Tc forums for mods that may work on the Vibe's 2.4l. They have the same exact engine.
