What are the places to not get parts from?

General question, I used to get stuff from nopi when i had an old civic but with out a sponsorship they get a little pricey not to mention that the 09+ Yaris hatch is the bastard child with out any specific body part. sure I could change out the bumpers so that i can put 07-08 headlights and tail lights in but I like those little differences in their shapes.

anyone know where to get an intake manifold for the yaris?

Good place to start looking. Micro Image rules for Yaris parts.

I have pretty much picked a chose from micro image and nopi and have a good selection so far, all I am missing is the intake manifold for my wish list, then i can start planing my build and budget.

Our intake manifold will be designed specifically for the Yaris and superior to the design you see on the internet now. Golden Eagle is producing it to our specifications. They took a look at my design and agreed with us that it's better. Oh yeah! Pricing will be competitive, as we are going to make a LOT of them.

Sorry "Troy" (aka Aras/xbGod).

You should see some threads where I was posting, I look the same way.

Thanks PK.

The manifold will be a production part, we are testing a prototype now, then producing and selling. It's an important part that must not cause CEL's (or we need to know it requires tuning), and we must know if it makes power.

The intake manifold you see on the web has NOT been tested for dyno results!

call them. They know what they are talking about and will give you more info than anyone could possibly know.

Oh and Garm, please promise you will never ever autoplay Kanye west on your shop... why the hell that would make anyone want to buy from someone is beyond me.

I've still never even seen the "other" website...the way that guy portrays himself is a real turn off.

my suggestion is to not bother with the site that shall not be named. it is built by a 10 year old off of a facebook based style. not to mention the fact that they think they are something special and should charge astronomical prices for the same stuff micro sales at reasonable pricing.
