SXTH Element Intercooler = Happy Temps | GR Corolla Install

- My good friend @Thrust83 picked up the @SXTHElementEngineering Front Mount Intercooler, for the #GRCorolla.
-
I picked up the camera and shot a quick video while helping to install it. However, SXTH Element has one of the best videos for this install here:
• GR Corolla SXTH Elemen...
-
The verdict is good, with a definite notice of better power at the top of the rev range, temperatures are well under previous thresholds and the car's power remains consistent. I need one too now.

Thanks for the videos! They are keeping me held over until I can get the GR Corrola. My dealers near me are starting to get Cores and Premiums and even Circuits pretty often so I am hoping when September roles around I will get one.
🙏🏾🤞🏾
Its getting much better to get GRCs at MSRP, so you are sure to get one soon!
Yoooo!!!! 🔥 the world has been waiting for these to ship. Would love to see a drive comparison 🙌🏼
I plan on getting a different front mount and running a comparison against his SXTH element version and the one I end up getting. Stay tuned!
CSF’s fmic ..?? 👀😯
Love the GRC videos man keep it up!!
Thanks! Will do!
charge pipe kit. Unfortunately the clamps provided by SXTH are bad the leak intermittently. I have contacted SXTH the refunded me for the kit and sending much better clamps. I made a facebook post about this issue and many others are having this issue. Just a FYI.
I have the same intercooler from SXTH (did mine a month ago)make sure you check for boost leaks after installing. Pressure test maybe a hour to hour and half install including pressure testing for leaks again with a lift in the shop. Pro TIP if you have boost leaks you will hear them especially over 15lbs of boost roll you windows up if you hear whistling sounds in boost you have leaks (we did after first install). Then pressure test with oil cap off (vent crank case pressure)and pcv capped use soapy water to look for leaks.. otherwise you are good to go. Also don’t over tighten couplers use silicone or hairspray to seal new charge pipes. FYI hairspray works great
Ha! We did each of those suggestions, but ended up changing out the clamps, as we heard the same leak under boost, but inspecting the clamp noticed it was damaged and swapped it. Car is performing great!
@@CarQuicks So the clamp was defective or intercooler.
ooh they make a gas strut for the GRC hood?
Not a specific GR Corolla version but there are gas struts for the standard Corolla Hatchback and that's what my friend used on his.
How tight did you tighten the hose clamps?
We used smaller electric rachet and tightened them.
I read on the website you don’t need a tune with this but idk better safe then sorry
You do not. I’m running a full downpipe and intake from MST without any tune, car has been running flawless for thousands of miles.
Now I will get a tune, as that will give me all the potential the parts have.
@CarQuicks I'm new to my GR but I had an Sti then went to this I know u can run the mst v1 and v2 with no tune and there's alot of other parts I'm amazed on how this is done are u using an ots map what's the app you run to clear codes for cel because gr does not have an accessport?
I’m confused why not just pull off the front bumper
You could, but we realized some people wouldn’t want to remove their front bumper, so this method wasn’t the worst.
@@CarQuicks bro I have to give you props no jack stands nothing other then those little ramps
Whatever emblem is on his front bumper is god-awful.
“GOD-awful”… like not “I prefer something else”, “not my taste”, but “GOD-awful”.. 😂😂😂
Tell us how you really feel! LOL!
