What the Yaris community needs to take the Yaris to the next level

[ChinoCharles]

I this thread.

This community needs a few things:
1. Some exposure
2. More willing buyers
3. A viable piggyback tuning option
4. A formula and/or bolt on kit for reliable boost
5. Cheaper, more available upgrades geared toward 4: pistons, cams, head gasket, intake manifolds etc etc

For now Garm is going to be the blueprint. I'm trying to show what NOT to do () and the supercharged people can wave while the turbo people pass them. Sorry guys, but I truly think you're all crazy. Still love ya though.

easy to say when you've bought a 500$ turbo kit, but is slowly falling apart. you still haven't dyno'd your car. let's see some numbers before you wave to an imaginary s/c yaris. But for a fact, you are definately putting down more whp. We are all just curious to see how much, and I highly doubt you'll be in the 13s on a 1/4. But good luck.

*when i retune with a larger tb/injectors, we might be seeing similar numbers if you don't upgrade your kit.

*when i've spent a total of $5000, i'll surely have beat your $500 turbo kit

Sadly the Yaris is too underpowered as a starting point for some people, so no Tuners take the car too seriosly. Hence a lack of really knowledgable tuners, or suppliers who want to build us a reliable turbo kit.

While its light and a fun car to drive, tuners feel there are not enough people lining up to go crazy with the car. Sadly, we just end up with suppliers flogging the same old basic bolt on parts, without any real R&D in tuning or a Supercharger or Turbo formula to sell us. maybe that will change in the near future.

If you go look at some other forums for example the Cobalt SS foum, Hyundai Genesis forum, Ford Focus forums and see the progress they're suppliers have made in such a short time, its sad our forum moves so slowly ahead.

I have to give credit to the trailblazers like Lt Noggie, Chinocharles, Peterpoop,Caliyaris and others who keep at it.

I think if there was a reliable 130-150 hp kit to be had there would be a lot more people ready to spend the money.

lol panda boy. why are you back? get banned on a scion forum?

Definately not 5k. I could have gone the turbo route easily too if I wanted and made a ghetto setup like you and run a panda hood, but I decided to go with blitz. I got the money, no biggie. Not in debt, and don't need to make plans to get out of debt by the end of the year or something stupid like that.
