BLAH, BLAH, BLAH.....You want more power buy a turbo. A few people on here are talking about how this is an econbox. That it is. But wasn't the civic and econobox too when 1st launched. The Yaris is far from a sports car. But just because It's an econobox doesn't mean that It can't be made to perfom like sports car. That's what everone said about the Civic. Look at them now you have Civics running 10's consistently. Give It time the aftermarket will catch up. At this point though turbo seems like It's the only way to go.

Versions of the civic were econo sure.. but there is definitely no "type r" for the yaris. Hell, not even an si.

Not in the US at least.

I tell myself I don't need a turbo for this car as I already built a blown chevelle for going fast in a strait line,but I have a feeling a turbo might be on this car sooner rather than later. It would be too damn fun,and surprise a lot of higher end cars. And then there is the BOV sound between shifts
