I installed it on one of those spare slots by the e-brake. I had already relocated my aux in to one of those, but the other one was open. With a little modification I got everything to fit pretty well. I've got a fair bit of the electrical business done so far, not much left!
BTW you are supposed to just splice those wires into the ECU wiring harness and not cut them right? I've been splicing them in. Also those little connector things that came with the kit don't really work that great so I've not bothered with them for most of this.

^ Good call, the ones they provide are cheap crap. Best way is to solder and shrink wrap your electrical work, so you know your connections are good.
90% of problems and troubleshooting are from wiring issues.

I probably should solder the joints instead of just wrapping. I'm just lazy haha. That harness is a bit of a pain to work on.

Oh snap, Blitz is a fun guy! Even on the low setting just testing it out I could tell a difference! This was a great decision :D

You do realize that low means activate with low throttle (so that is the most aggressive setting)?

Oh? I thought it meant like low boost or something. So that's just how much throttle has to be on before it activates?

Correct on the latter - The Blitz controller monitors the throttle position and the switch selects with how much throttle the clutched pulley connects. I have an automatic and at the mid or high settings it's a little funky, so I always keep it on low.

I just took my lady out for a test drive in it, she was impressed haha. Yaris is infinitely more fun now :D Also, did a sweet burnout that was about 20 yards, even rocking 205/50/R16 Kuhmo Ecstas. Car wouldn't even spin on those dinky little 175s or whatever that it came with originally.

Wiring still needs more cleanup and I need to cut the engine cover back, but here she is.

Yeah it had around 2 gallons of 87 in it, but I filled the rest of the tank with 93 and it seems to be doing fine.
