what about this kit would NOT work for the yaris?

Plus I'm still leaning towards competing in STS (Solo 2 SCCA class) with the Yaris, it'll help me curb my desire to spend $$ unnecessarily.

already got the Coils and the Wheels, just need to get a CG lock and seat time.

I'm familiar enough with turbo motors that I like to keep tabs on it all, plus after riding in Tamago's VF39 power'd 1nzfe it is damn tempting, but SCCA classing on an armature level has allowed me to keep the spending down on the STI hopefully it'll do the same for the Yaris. :)

as the saying goes, we shall see.

that HKS kit looks promising, but honestly I'm not certain enough about EM to do it.

You're the guys that we need to be the guinea pigs. I'm worthless as a guinea pig... if you're in Ohio and you don't drive a 'Stang or a 'Vette you can't even drive into half of the dyno shops. The other half aren't willing to hop on the guinea pig band wagon.

If I could find a shop willing to figure it out and not murder me on the price within about 5 states I'd do it, but when they ask "what are you using" and I explain exactly whats going on they shy away.

well Tamago proved the stock block can handle some abuse, and he offered to setup the turbo in the Yaris. Can't afford the downtime on the car currently.

Maybe one of these days when we figure out EM (Engine Management) we'll play around with slapping a turbo on.

I'd prefer to have a fully functioning EM setup in an N/A yaris before even attempting F/I but that's just me.
