i know a lot of people here bought the yaris because it was cheap and are not planing on putting any kind of performance parts on, but theres a growing number of people that like the looks of the yaris but want more power.

i myself am hoping to finish my turbo kit by the end of the month. i need extra power, not an insane amount of power but another 60-70horses at the crank will do. i think the engine/trans can withstand that extra amount with no issues.

the more people interested in a product the better.

Considering that there are 3 members out of 3000+ that have a turbo or s/c kit I say that this kit will be a sales disapointment to company making it.
True.... but I'm one of the 3...

Stage 0 might be more appealing... And easier for everyone to get past the significant other in their life...

I however don't care. Soon as a solid kit comes out, so does my credit card :)

I probably would. Depends on management, that's the critical element and I don't think anyone has figured out how to work with our ECU yet.

I am betting it can be done for under $2,000...

and cdydjded I know we have talked about it before... And I know that your option is to just throw money at your problems... But money is my problem... LIKE A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO BUY A YARIS!

So back off!

People... Can I get an "AMEN" for a Stage 0 Yaris Turbo Kit?

$2500? I'd buy it in a second.

heck, I have money in pocket and all I want is 15 more hp realistically. You'd think it'd be doable but it doesn't seem to be.
