i had a supercharged mr2, that was basically maintenance free. just gas and go, oil change at recommended intervals. now THAT was a blast to drive, oem supercharger setup engineered to toyota precision.

Thanks Ron, that is the type of info that is useful to me. If Toyota releases a super-charger for the Yaris through TRD, we can expect a performance increase without the problems associated with SOME after-market accessories. Some people here have the skill and are equiped to do a little of their own R+D, NOT ME.

If you want specifics, i can give it to you. All my posts on this particular thread is related to the xb/xa community, which shares identical motors, the two major differences are ecu mapping (closer to 06' xb's than older models) and gearing is spread out more in the yaris compared to the xb/xa due to its geared specifically for fuel economy, although the automatics are identical.

The TRD Aurion (the name of the S/C sedan) looks promising.. Can't wait to have a little drive in one. Ricko, nothing major as I said.. just leaking manifolds.. easily fixable with a gasket change... other than that, laugh-a-mile as you drive past most cars. :) |

trd makes pretty crappy s/cers, their newest addition for the 2az has huge oil leak issues coming from the shafts and other places, and i've heard of a few losing psi on stock belts.

Hmmmmmmmm. Seems there is no foolproof way to do this. I guess the easiest way to get 200hp is to buy an SI.

Of course it IS possible, but to do it right is not EASY and it requires an owner that is prepared to take all the necessary steps to maintain the performance and longevity of the engine. Hence the comment, " .... the EASIEST way to get 200hp is to buy an SI."

There is one thing that may or maynot have been said, but why? The Yaris is to save on gas (money). Put the boost to it and you will not get 40mpg and you will also need premium fuel, which will be about $.20 a gal. more. Both of my other cars are boosted. I have a 02 S/C tacoma I have not had any trouble with it that has cost me any money. The biggest problem is low rpm full throddle in a high gear. Not enough fuel. Thats the only flaw that I have seen. I also have TRD headers and exhaust. I think the trans will need a rebuild sooner than a non S/C. More power is always good but at what cost?

I'm trying to get my hand on the NCP91 version of the Blitz S/C right now.
Tuning will be done with E-Management. With the intake, header, exhaust on + ecu tuning, i should be able to get 140-150WHP. |

Yup. Superchargers run off the engine, sapping power and have to USE a LOT OF STEPPER gears to get NEAR 50,000 rpm.. TURBOS run off UNUSED EXHAUST GAS, which is UP TO 70% of the energy of the Air/Fuel Explosion...and can easily spool to 80,000+... superchargers are kinda nice on s2000s since they rev to 9K...but not on yaris. 3500 and only 40 whp gain? NOS would be much more efficient. Though, the new Blitz Vitz superchager can be turned completely off..that's not bad for fuel efficiency, either.
