not just that, all others counts too, ie. exhaust manifold and center pipe

I did not take those into account because 90% of Yaris tuners have those done already... that is why I only said 40HP.... Exhaust+intake maybe 10HP in cunjuction with everything else

yes, agree, dyno on wheel will be great. A bit curious with that too. .
however, mind you that this sort of car is also sensitive with its actual weight..the lighter it is, the faster it can go..."power to weight ratio"

I think this person is referring to coil springs as coilovers.

Looking at the photos though there is no way that is nf springs unless they're hacked. That car is tucked and you don't get any tuck with NF's.

The spring rates are way high. I can't find anything with those spring rates. Must be a custom job.

yes you guys are correct. The actual rate of tanabe springs for the nf kit coil over is 3K front and rear. I bought another springs which have harder spring rate but similar diameter for me to use in the circuit only, as the original is not hard enough. I use the original springs only for street use.
