Never use a dry kit, your car will run way to lean and it may damage the engine, my advice, buy an APEXi AFC take it to the dyno, the yaris will definitely hold 50hp worth of nos with the correct mixture of air and fuel, i've been told it can hold 60, I have not tried this, I do know it cannot hold 75, everyone I know that has tried this have blown their engine, although I dont know if they set up the kit with the AFC. Hope this helped

I think the moral to this story, and this entire thread, is that NOS is super cool where appropriate. As much as I love my Yaris...I wouldn't spend 1k+ on installing a NOS kit and using it a handful of times. Plus if you need it to be your daily car for the next two years...this doesn't seem like a mod you'd want to make.

However...

If you've made your mind up, all the more power to ya and good luck! Post some pictures when it's all said and done!

Guys I need help with finishing up my NOS kit. I have a TB spacer with fogger hole coming in soon, so I'm guessing that all I'm missing is a window switch to tie everything together, right?

Unfortunately, I have no idea which one to get. Here are a few units I've come across so far (click on the images for links):

Here's the system I got from Garm (at an excellent price, BTW):


MSD Window RPM Activated Switch


NOS Fuel Injection Drive-By-Wire Wide Open Throttle Window Switches


Not sure if I need these too:
TPS VOLTAGE SENSING FULL THROTTLE ACTIVATION SWITCH


HYPERFORMANCE™ SPARK PLUGS


Any ideas? I really want to get that thing on my car.
Thanks in advance!

Not sure what I'm looking at. I see a bunch of RPM chips and an "NX DIGITAL RPM WINDOW SWITCH"...

Are you saying that all I need is either an RPM chip or a window switch? If so, which RPM chip would be best? I'm thinking 3000 is pretty low, and the others are a bit high for our cars, right? Where should the chip go?

I'm a huge n00b when it comes to this, so spoon-feeding is appreciated (and encouraged).

Nitrous Use

I had a zex kit on my 94 Altima, lots of fun beating up on a lot of cars.When using the system it is reccommended not to use over 12 seconds. Zex has a kit out there for almost any car. This is a dry system with one fogger that goes in your intake plenum, close to your throttle body.The kit has a bottle, a long braided line, a Zex distribution solenoid, a switch, and pills for how much of a shot you need. The kit goes from 50 to 100 shot. Depending on where you live you may need a bottle warmer, I never used one. I have never used a purge kit, if your system is leak tight why would you need to purge? The system also require you to use one step colder plugs.

I just got a vice for my machine and installed the tooling, just gotta figure out how the cam software works then i'll probably be doing the nitrous gig too with a spacer plate.

All you really need is a basic kit, purge would be nice but alot of people don't run them, and a window switch. You can never really go wrong with ZEX. But you want to make sure it activates with TPS and RPMs IE: at 90%+ Throttle Position and from 3000-200rpm before redline. And also an activation button to make sure you don't spray all day long. I doubt you want the thing to be spraying at only 40% throttle either :P

Good luck with your project!

This one looks good, i think its in your picture up there. Goes by TPS and RPM

It's almost like the one on my picture, but this one does TPS as well... Thanks for the find!

Now I need to find an activator switch that fits... I'm getting close!

I don't think the mani would take it TBH... You may be interested in the upcoming offering from MicroImage, which will have optional nitrous ports.

Be prepared to wait a while for that, however...
