The GR Corolla is the hottest hot hatch on the market right now. Its 1.6L three-cylinder turbo motor shared with the GR Yaris is an engineering marvel and offers plenty of room for growth. Pairing that with the all-wheel-drive system, great suspension, and stiff chassis, you have one serious competitor.
The GR Corolla quickly took the tuning world by storm with aftermarket companies eager to support it. With tuning being readily available due to previous development on GR Yaris, there was a huge demand for a performance intercooler right from the get go. CSF teamed up with Jackson Racing to offer the most advanced and efficient intercooler on the market. Moto IQ recently conducted their independent testing on the intercooler and said it was “The BEST Performing Intercooler We’ve Ever Tested”.
CSF has become very well known for offering multiple finishes because everyone has different tastes. The intercooler is available in a Black (#8285B) finish for those looking for a more stealthy look behind the grill. The Silver (#8285) finish has a more OEM look, but is also more visible through the front grille.
