Drove a Turbo Yaris - Page 5 - Toyota Yaris Forums

+1 on the gt28, a gt25 would be the best choice w/o a built motor and even then it can still destroy our motor at mid to high psi.

FYI & I wont claim to have always known this but a there is very little difference in between the GT2554R & a GT2854R. They are both exactly the same size physically. The only difference in the between the 2 is the size of the turbine wheel. The GT2554R is 53mm & the GT2854R is 53.8mm.

so why go gt28 over the gt25?

cdydjded · 06-28-2010, 10:58 AM

I think there is a little confusion here, I never said we were going to use a GT28, I said a T28. The difference between the two is that the T28 in not ball bearing as opposed to the GT28 which is. Also the GT28 is made by Garrett & the T28 is not.

thanks for clarifying that, I think I created the confusion.

As for gt25 vs gt28, there sure is a difference in spooling up.

TheRealEnth · 06-28-2010, 02:15 PM

This is getting exciting.

Personally cdydjded, I think the industrial look is great. That kit looks like it seriously gonna whoop some ass. It would have all kinds of people asking questions when U pop the hood. Being a mechanic for about 12 years, functional is always better at the stop light then pretty. Its better to spank their ass and then ask how much they spent on their chrome later!
What did U use to street tune? Is a wide band A/F ratio sensor and guage all that is needed. Or what other equipment is needed if any?

cali yaris · 06-29-2010, 10:32 PM

FIC can be tuned with a laptop. My car has the EMS, but same idea. We street tuned also before going to the dyno for tweaking.

Thx for the compliments. I used the good old fashion butt dyno first to tune the AEM FIC. Eventually Ill throw is back on the dyno. Im also installing a AEM wide band soon so Ill use that in conjuction with the butt dyno...

Wait, so you tuned it by feel without knowing what AFR you are? Or did you have it on the dyno, or atleast have a handheld wideband and stuck a tailpipe sniffer in the back? Please tell me you did.

What would also be cool i think that Garm or someone mentioned in a previous thread is a downpipe with multiple bungs and one is sealed off until later use, I do not know if your kit has this already.

And whoever was arguing about the GT25 vs. GT28, joey is right, the ones that he listed are almost identical turbos with the same fingerprint maps if you look at them. There is a slight difference, yes, but nothing extremely significant. Something more substantial would be a GT2860R + or something. larger

which 28 is the disco potato?

I wouldn't mind driving or just taking a ride in your turbo yaris.....Simply cause it might sway me from getting something else.

I don't think we'll be turbocharging our yaris before we get a LSD but I like what I'm seeing here.

TheRealEnth · 07-01-2010, 11:15 PM
