Helpp, On modding engine

Gday, Ive got a Corolla with a "Celica 2 Litre". Would this be a 4k Engine?
Also, I'd like to Mod it obviously. What mods am i best to do that dont cost a shitload and improve power?
Information about Twin 45mm Webbers, Twin Overhead Cam. Which ones will fit?
As you have realised, I know nothing about Toyota Engines and would like to improve power that isnt to complicated:p
Cheers..

Hard to say exactly what engine it is. it should say on the side of the engine. Im guessing it will either be a 3sge or 3sfe. If its a 3sfe i wouldnt bother trying to upgrade it. I would get a halfcut engine or something better. The 3sge is a good engine and will have decent power to start with. You can turbo it but once again its probably better to get a new half cut otherwise you'll have to upgrade the internals. I dont know much about the Corolla's so there might be better engines for them.
Cheers

Well, I just went to have a look. Couldnt see any 3sge or 3sfe.
Well heres a pic of it. Ive recently just bought it. So a new engine isnt an option.
Any information on it woul be great. Good information that is

Looking at the pictures makes me think some kind of "K" series motor. But that would mean it's not out of a celica, and not a 2.0 litre motor.
What model corolla? Looks to be RWD, which would make sense with a K motor.

Have a look there.
Anyway, maybe an exhaust system, a mild cam, some twin carbs... depends how far you want to go, and how deep your pockets are.

dont think 22REs are crossflow are they? there isnt a G or F in the code...
that motor is crossflow, but i dont know my 18RG, 2TG, 3TG etc so cant be sure, but i'd say it could be one of these.
the first thing i'd do is piss off that silly air intake pipe, unless there is a turbo on the other end of it.

Looks a bit narrow for a G series head I thought? Or at least too narrow to be dohc.
He needs to have a look at the engine serial number and it will reveal all

yeah, 22r's are crossflow I'm pretty sure. You can be sure that there is no G on the end of the engine designation, cos there ain't two cams up there. Not that that really matters. Modding any engine is the same in principle. Make it breath better and you'll be laughing, but it's always gonna be a low revving beast whatever you do to it.

Looks pretty much like a 22R from a Hilux with the carb, and also like someone's made the beginnings of a blow through turbo setup. Try and take a bit better photo!

That is a 21r or 22r if it's out of a celica it will be the 21r 2LTR out of a ra60 celica , As far as mods go it already has extractors and what looks like a weber carby, so with that motor that's about all the mods you can do other than rebuilding with stronger internals and fitting a turbo and converting to EFI with a aftermarket ECU .

It looks like it would be either a 20/21/22r motor as i have the 22r myself and it looks much the same.

Instead of guessing, how about looking at the engine number stamped into the block? If it starts with "22R", you have a 2.4 litre Celica/Hilux engine (which is what it looks like).
