I know you guys are saying "I'm in" but keep in mind this probably will be at least 5-700 dollars(maybe more, garm correct me if I am totally off base) and that price is why half the people flaked out the last time something like this came up. Hell I used to argue about the price being too high but after doing alot more research unless its a honda this is the price you have to pay with a car like ours...another words don't make promises and then dissapear....

Haha well i'm one of those few, slightly mental, Yaris drivers. Since i'm decently competitive in the local auto-x club i'm willing to plop down a bit of money. The big questions at least for me would be whether long runners would adversely effect running say....a zage turbo kit. I know short runners seem to be the approved route for forced induction but since the "Performance Yaris" subset is limited, data for pretty much all applications is limited too.

To quote Portal 2- "I'll be honest, we're throwing science at the walls here to see what sticks. No idea what it'll do." <--- I feel like that's how a lot of Yaris modifications go. I mean it's still a relatively young car in the US market.
