now that looked nice. ur car has the same engine right? my general question is what type of mods will help me increase my 0-60 time. More specifically I asking for help in deciding whether to use a t/c or s/c to determine the mods suitable. I have now decided on a t/c. Also what kind of headers would be a good choice to use with a t/c if any? What is the setup for your t/c? Is it a built-in intercooler or remote? Also what size wastegate? Those questions are for anyone who has a t/c.

so far my list is as follows:

quickshifter (installed)
AEM CAI (installed)
10% underdrive NST Pulley(ordered)
Kaaz LSD
lighter wheels and slick tires
removing unused parts from car
t/c
custom exhaust system(type and design determined by t/c)
headers(maybe?)

i'm running a VF39 from a Subaru Impreza STI, all custom everything (turbo is top-mounted above the valve cover) and using a small but thick Saab side-mount intercooler mounted under the hood and fed with a NACA style duct.

the wastegate is internal to the VF39 and is "set" at 8psi (for an STI) but i see 9-10psi on it

if you want to go faster in 0-60 only i recommend nitrous.. $500 and an afternoon and you'll be done. i have over a year of blood sweat, swearwords, cut/burned bodyparts and hundreds of hours of just pure headache in my turbo setup. granted, i'm sure the Yaris world will have a plug n play kit very soon so you wont' have to deal with what i dealt with.

budget $8000 for a nice kit and all the gauges/safety precautions you should take to make it a reliable daily driver.
