Why would why industries (i know, it sounds funny) design a turbo manifold but no supporting products to correspond with it?
Was there a kit that was pulled from their site?
Has anyone heard of these guys, or their quality?

Go to scionlife.com

Do a search for TURBOTOYOTAS. Thats their name. The owner is a guy named Todd.

You will find a lot of information... anything from horror stories, of people who waited a year for their parts to be delivered to people who praise them for the quality of their products.

About that manifold, Garm (Cali Yaris) has one installed on his car.

I believe they tried to come up with a full kit for the yaris but the parts they offered had all kinds of fitting problems.

PetersRedYaris · 11-13-2008, 11:55 PM

But the manifold is good?

anonymous user · 11-13-2008, 11:57 PM

Thanks bud. I don't plan on buying anyhting from them until i find out the who/what/why's of their work.

yes, the mani is good, pretty much the only good part out of the kit they had. Todd has since stopped making kits, and offers individual parts instead.

Thanks cali.
You know, coming from the suby community, i have been contemplating a twin-scroll turbo option. I'd love to get your takes on this! thanks.
Oh crap, yes i meant for the yaris.

CASTREX · 11-14-2008, 12:13 AM

Here is another option. This manifold should work for the Yaris

http://www.365motorwerks.com/turbomanifolds.aspx

Is the 365 MW manifold for their new scion xb kit. Looks really nice.

This guy used to be member of the forum, haven{t seen him for a long time now.

cali yaris · 11-14-2008, 12:40 AM

that looks EXACTLY the same as Todd's

replicated probably... who wants to let me jig it up... turbo manifolds for everyone :) $250 hahaha

mikenacarato · 11-14-2008, 10:50 AM

so if you get a turbo kit for an xb what will not work if the manifold does?

cali yaris · 11-14-2008, 01:41 PM

PLEASE BUY IT and find out for us.

I bet the downpipe wouldn't be the same, probably throttle body, ECU/tuning, piping for sure...

mikenacarato · 11-14-2008, 01:48 PM

i would be glad to..maybe by xmas time. BUT i have emissions here, how would i remap the ecu for it? how did you do yours cali? as far as the throttle body goes you can get that blitz unit and im sure you would be fine. its the ecu AND the heat issues that im concerned with. how is the heat buildup in your bay caliyaris?

cali yaris · 11-14-2008, 02:21 PM

not too bad on the heat, vented hood is recommended

No one has remapped our ECU yet. Matter of fact, I think the car has only been successfully tuned in other countries!

At least in CA, adding a turbo kit would make you illegal for smog from both visual and emissions standpoint.

mikenacarato · 11-14-2008, 02:40 PM

how did you tune yours?

PETERPOOP · 11-14-2008, 08:46 PM

he didn't. bleh

mikenacarato · 11-15-2008, 01:02 AM

and it runs kinda correctly? lol

Sabretooth · 11-15-2008, 10:34 AM

Efficiently and correctly are two opposite sides of the spectrum atm.

lol
