1985 toyota corolla GT-S engine .. possible engine swap... HELP!?!?!?!
ok so here i am crusing thought this little hick town like 30 miles from my house and i see this corolla sitting in the yard of some run down dump and go ask the guy who lives there how much for the car.... he says 100$ but it doesn't run and that i can go monkey with it.... we came back got a trailer... got it home i put new spark plugs and wires and changed oil and drained gas and put new it and jumper cables on the battery... this car is fun as hell and i would like to see more of them but im looking for more power .... also 4th gear pops out very eaisly and it is full of fluid... whats wrong there?? if any one knows the best way to get power and also relibilty outta this motor or another i could simply swap... fabrication is no issue but cost is so idk if i wanna go boost, all engine or spray what ever is going to be the best for my engine .... power wise and relability... id like to get boosted so id like to know the best options for my fuel system.... i turboed my cavalier so im somewhat knowledeged in this area but this is no cavalier and i want what is best

if you want more HP out of the stock motor, start at the normal places, header, exhaust, intake, head porting, etc
get on google or something and search for some toyota specific forums to help you out, otherwise stay here and turbo it dont forget to take pics
