Im a bit weird, I like to keep my cars the same displacement as they come, or smaller.

But a 2zr in a tercel would be a monster. I might even consider one for the Yaris as I dont nearly drive the same mileage as I used to. It makes 107whp, 110wtq now. But to gain what, 20-30numbers more and keep using regular gas is looking mighty appealing over finishing my turbo build and run high octane.

I would have to source a wrecked xD from copart to even consider the swap into the yaris that way I get everything i need

All good points. As someone who pieced the swap together over a period of 6-9 months, buying a whole donor xD really is the way to go. Assuming you can get the right planetary alignment, of course. An MT xD is really hard to find in the wild, much less totaled with no front end damage.

Found a few semi locally with minor damage that "runs and drives" 1 of them is currently at $90 LOL
