Higher RPM's do not more HP numbers make...just because riceboy in his built b18 integra makes his peak HP at 9k RPM's does not mean a yaris will.

In the performance section a turbo kit for the yaris is being tested as we speak...and if I remember correctly they are around 180hp without building the bottom end to make the engine rev higher. High RPM's mean more to go wrong...rods through the block are a example that comes to mind.

It will be very hard to use a stand alone engine management system to control the motor at high RPM's, because the yaris' throttlebody is electronic...much more difficult to get a EMU that will work with it.

Fuel modifications, bigger valves & cams, and boost however, these are things we both agree on!

Anyone wish to start the time honored debate of Synthetic VS Synthetic Blend?

I'll avoid the oil debate but still disagree on the RPMs. 9000rpms is nothing for a 1.5L engine, if built properly. A 1.5L should be able to do 12k with no issues. But why spend the money. Engine management is a huge issue, of course. 180hp on a stock bottom with a 6500 rpm redline does make all the fuss of getting into anything else seem almost pointless.

and for that matter....... Synthetic oil rocks!!!

I couldn't help myself.
