Beefing Up my Yaris

[H3LlIoN]

IIRC one of the turbokit manufacturers makes an oil pan cast with a hole for turbo oil, so check greddy, hks, etc...it's billed as for the xB, but engine is same.

Here...it's pic'd in this link...you just need to find it without the rest of the kit.

I noticed the pn like shape of our oil pan, maybe i'll check on the scion forums and see if any of the guys have luck with the oil pan. Tapping the block scares me for 2 reasons: first I'm worried me or someone I have do it, will screw it up and secondly I'm worried if I ever need to bring the car back to stock, I wont be able to.

You have to drill the upper part of the pan. Its not really part of the block. The oil pan itself is to low, you will have oil return problems. I bought the Zage pan to see if the return would work & it does not. There is not way around it.

low boost won't require an intercooler.

But it will run alot better with an I/C. Cool dense air is what you want & an I/C creates that for you. There are NO significant drawbacks to an I/C. It only helps with the additional air you are pumping into the engine.

There is always a drawback!

Drawbacks of installing an I/C is mainly Boost Lag depending what are the:

- I/C dimensions, Intake and Outake width ports and I/C Brand Quality

- Turbo Specs and Brand

- I/C pipping width and distance between turbo & throttle body


And then there are also...

- Fitment issues or Complications

- Increased Weight and Decreased space into the engine bay

- Surplus total expense to cover all parts and labour

I think that might be all

Here a link to a article that rebuts most of your points:

LOL @ everything

[cdydjded]

Well obviously for a Yaris for example you not going to use a I/C with 4" inlets & outlets with a core size of 30" wide by 16" high by 4" thick. A proper size I/C is key to making it a necessary addition to a turbo kit. Again there are no significant drawbacks to a properly installed I/C with the correct size I/C & piping.
