links and/or pics would be good. Doesn't look like they make a kit for the Yaris.

^ thank you
ok, got questions: 1. What does "Oil return hose and oil pan fitting " mean? We don't have an oil pan that will take a hose. 2. It's for "1.6L"? 3. What injectors are included? 4. Air intake (connects to stock air box -- hmmm, ok 5. Who is TSI and where are they located? ok and this made me chuckle: "TSI Extreme turbo kits come included with many turbo upgrade items including downpipe" -- uh, that's not exactly an upgrade?

Alright, I asked my questions directly - let's see what they say.
It sounds good IF those questions get answered AND it's a real Garrett ball bearing turbo.

I replaced question #5 with "Which exact Garrett part number is the turbo?". I called them on the phone.
Doug was unable to answer any of the questions. He says he will reply by email.

I would think that if your kit is for sale (and I could buy it today) you would know the answers to these questions as a business.
sounds a little fishy to me. I am staying out of the boosted scene too right now as I still owe quite a bit on the car and don't want to prematurely blow anything up. it is nice to know that there is still some people out there that will call companies on BS. |

Well, we don't know the kit is actual BS yet, there are good reviews on the Honda forums. But I agree that a manager should know the answers to basic questions like I asked.
Anyways, I did get an email back, and now he is waiting to hear from the factory.... in China, of course. Here is what they said so far: Quote:

Interesting, because there was no mention of a 1NZ kit anywhere on their website.
If the turbo isn't a real ball bearing Garrett turbo then the price is |

Also interesting that it's a discontinued Garrett part number?
