Sorry Evan... it's true... this won't happen. I think the *most* we've ever had has been maybe 5 cars?

20 Yaris in the same place happens all day long, at the dealership...thats all your going to get, its hard to organize the meets for the Yaris clubs out there, the only ones that have good turnouts are the Socal Yaris peeps.

Other than that, the most Yaris I have seen in the same place even in a populated state like Florida, is 5. And that was bringing people from all over the state.


Oh and on a brighter note, I would drop the coin on this in a heartbeat, if I knew I could meet the stipulations, which I wouldnt be able to for a while.

thanks for the input

at this point, i could care less, everyone here can debate and recommend whatever they want to ease their minds in buying this kit.....

whatever (everyone here wants) thats what you have to do in order to receive the special pricing....

You are waisting your time i hope you kno that... how long has it been since you started? You tried but just no bite, the demand is not here for that kit and you missed a few sales because of all the strings attached. Good luck tho i would just pack up and find another location to sell your project.

i'll agree that there hasn't been a bite but to say there is no demand is not true. many people obviously want this or it wouldn't span this many pages over two different threads. i think it's just some people are either broke or unsure about the product. or even both. and there's really only strings attached if you want the discounted price, otherwise it's just like buying anything else... which i don't think that's really all that unreasonable. stick around long enough and someone will buy it i say. just may take some patience. a LOT of patience. when one person buys it more will follow.

I think the thing that is putting off a lot of people is the fact that for a comperable price to this deal ($3100++) you can get a known entity (Blitz). Even though the offer price is abouy 25% off the list for this kit, the fact that that "special" price includes several pretty onerous requirements is putting people off.

As others have proposed...in order to get this thing off the ground PE will need to make the deal much better for the first convert to this kit.

I understand PE needs to make money and cover development costs, but PE needs to take into account the value of the feedback and advertising they will be getting in return, including the probable costs to the individual who gets the kit as a result of a few days off work to attend car shows and to get some dyno time, not to mention the install time (I work on Saturdays).

I would venture to guess that the number of boosted yariss' has doubled in the last 12 months thanks to the blitz kit, and the market, though a little weak at the moment, is still ready for a real competitor to the blitz kit.

Just noticed Evan of Power enterprises drives a VIP Yaris. Evan, put the kit on your car, get it all sorted out, post video and results. Then the buyers will come
Suggest to your boss to try it on your car ! The manufacturer should be the Guinea pig on the first kit sold not the customer LOL.

I'm sorry but noone is going to drop 4 grand on supercharging a 12k car. I understand some work probably went into R&D but PE needs to drop the price if they want to sell any of these kits.
