It'll be there in just 3 days.
Right now I'm the only person in the world running a intake spacer like that on my Yaris... ... but pretty soon, I won't be. Greg |

Hey sorry guys... I totally neglected to file off the edge on the spacer like this...
It allows for clearance for the, I think it's the valve timing advance cylinder. Right here... A rough hand file takes it right down. It doesn't take much to make it fit. I just totally forgot to do it. If you have any questions let me know here in this thread. First try to fit it unfiled so that it becomes crystal clear exactly where the little bit of filing is necessary. That cut isn't on the CNC machine program because it's an undercut, and the 90 degree tool doesn't do undercuts. So you simply file it by hand to fit. Greg |

Ooooo what part of WA are you in? I'm smack dab in the middle.
I really really want one of these...... but can't free quite that much. Will you be doing another batch? |

What I do is totally determined by how many people buy them. I'm already thinking about another product but I still don't know what it is yet. Greg |

I saw your mpg specs on your main thread and am impressed but lets get some hwy time on it and some romping included : )
Could you possibly provide 2 measurements? How much further does the stock intake stick out and how far out does the 1zz intake stick out. My classic car swap is very limited in space and if I go down this route, I want to make sure it will clear the firewall (engine is in the back). Thanks |

And as far as romping, it's not a high performance horsepower product. It just helps the engine to pull stronger at low rpms. Quote:

The Yaris happens to have plenty of empty space in front of the engine that allows the luxury of a thick spacer. Greg |
