tooter,

So glad you got positive dyno numbers. I think the engine looks MUCh better without the plastic cover. I like to see the mechanical bits and pieces. Also, the whole thing looks much more "gnarly" with the DOHC valve cover showing instead of some stylized plastic.

Hey Doug,

Thanks, I'm really happy it makes more power... and most importantly with no loss of driveability or mileage. As much as I've been messing around with the Yaris, it's still our daily driver.

Yeah, I'm kind of liking the all aluminium look, too... especially as everything has the same even pearly matte finish.
