While our PCV fix kit fixes the P2C90 CEL in most cases, cold weather can bring the code on regardless. Toyota has issued a TSB which requires an ECU software update at the dealership. This permanently eliminates this code from popping up!
The SXTH Element Engineering CPLT Intake is a total package of performance and OEM fit/finish. CPLT is short for "Complete" and our intake leaves nothing out. Bolt on performance with NO check engine light!
As air enters the OEM scoop and the new airbox, our high flow oiled filter with integrated velocity stack feeds air through the new tube into the OEM turbo inlet. Through extensive development and testing, our intake manages up to 14whp and 14wtq as rpms climb to redline. All of this done on the OEM ECU without any additional modifications. All of this without any CEL! We had to engineer a new PCV tube as part of the kit to keep all OEM ECU monitors in place. You can read all about the intake testing in our blog post here: https://sxthelement.com/blogs/default-blog/gr-corolla-intake-testing-complete
Our intake pipe and airbox are molded from XLPE plastic, a durable material perfect for lightweight intake systems. The intake tube is tuned to the perfect size to have proper airflow for the MAF sensor, while relieving pressure drop in the intake system. With less pressure drop, pumping losses of the turbo are reduced, increasing performance. We also achieve the HP gains without altering OEM air/fuel ratios.
The airbox also relocates the additional air entry area away from the hot area of the engine. You'll see this in the testing blog post. Part of the performance increase comes from cooler IAT (Intake Air Temperature) and that is achieved with our new airbox design.
We use the latest tech in 3D scanning and CAD design for intake development. This allows us to get a perfect OEM fit on the first try and fine tune the intake in the computer before going into real world testing.
One of the standout features of the S-400 Turbocharger Upgrade is the brand-new CHRA (Center Housing Rotating Assembly). We chose not to reuse the original ball-bearing assembly because doing so would introduce a risk of failure due to the press-fit nature of the turbine shaft and ball bearings. By utilizing a brand-new ball-bearing assembly, we’ve eliminated the potential for misalignment or premature wear, ensuring long-lasting performance and peace of mind.
This upgrade also improves turbo reliability under high-stress conditions, meaning you can push your GR Corolla harder for longer periods without worrying about component fatigue.
Our S-400 Turbocharger Upgrade is designed to deliver up to 400 horsepower at the wheels, all while maintaining the reliability you’ve come to expect from a daily driver. Combining our in-house engineering expertise with industry-leading manufacturing techniques, the result is a turbo that offers significant performance gains without sacrificing the dependability of your vehicle.
