Well I own the GT28 and it is very tight back there. Infact I am having trouble fitting the air filter especially because of right hand drive setup.

Did you need to increase the diameter of the fuel lines because of the Walbro fuel pump?

Not necessary.

No new pics, but Art tells me the wiring is now 90% complete. YES!

So we'll soon have word when you'll be selling your old turbo kit you made?

jkuchta · 03-13-2009, 10:21 PM

This is going to be Bitchin' once it's done bro!

cali yaris · 03-14-2009, 12:39 AM

Gideon · 03-14-2009, 01:55 AM

Awwwww.

Nexus1155 · 03-14-2009, 08:38 AM

I didn't know if anything was done Cali, i was going to call you and see if i can come by to check it out, I was in Perris, CA, but i had no time on my hands :-/

cali yaris · 03-14-2009, 11:42 AM

Next session on the car is tomorrow. Either piping or cable/throttle is next, I would imagine.

CtrlAltDefeat · 03-16-2009, 11:57 PM

gah I'm so sick of the lack of Yaris love on YouTube... Can you or any one for that matter make some good turbo Yaris race videos I can use as examples?

cali yaris · 03-17-2009, 02:22 AM

I guess Art needed some extra wires.

Here is what's left of the stock engine wiring harness.
