2ZR Turbo Yaris

So cool to hear/see. The car looks great and I can only imagine how much more fun it is to drive over stock. Hopefully given enough time/data, you'll sort the remaining bugs, but it doesn't sound like they're all that bad.

Yeah, it's fun for sure. I went for a long highway drive this evening and tried out the cruise control. I did get the occasional buck and sweep of the AFR gauge under a certain load and rpm. I eliminated it with the addition of some fuel, but I'm going to solder in the 2.2K resistor because it's sounding a bit like the issue the Scion cars had. Enriching the fuel map cell helps but I think I may have a little glitch in the timing around 3500 and certain other factors associated with a dirty signal. All the Boomslang harnesses have the resistors wired in.

I decided to pull a second gear WOT acceleration this evening. I poured into the throttle at about 30 kmh and the front wheels- more likely 1 wheel - lit up and spun as it entered third gear. Third is the 'funnest' gear as it pulls very hard and long, relatively speaking. I did this pull as I wanted to observe the speedometer to ensure I'm not getting any clutch slippage. The speedo jumped rapidly with tach, so I think I'm good there. This thing would kill with an LSD. It accelerates very hard once it's up over 50 - 60 kmh. Below that it wants to spin like crazy at near full boost. Although the auto is doing quite well, expect it will eventually pack it in even though I wont often be driving like I described above. If/when it dies - or starts to fail - a manual with upgraded clutch will likely replace it. I'd really like a 6-speed.
