turbo project continued... - Toyota Yaris Forums

Since my tC is now available to me, the Yaris was committed to the shop for the next few weeks (or so) for the major engine revisions we've been planning, courtesy of Arthur at Horizon Motorsports.

Bye bye stock wiring, and A/C -- guess I'm committed now, eh?

kou · 02-20-2009, 01:51 AM

nice is that the new motor in there.

cali yaris · 02-20-2009, 01:53 AM

nope, not yet, we may do a 2 step process and get the stock wired up and tuned, work out the bugs, then swap and retune -- OR we'll get really excited and just go for the built motor.

Also new -- Art put a custom Perrin fuel rail on the built motor, so we can have a return line.

Cali, if you're not going to use your stock harness, want to sell/donate it to me?

Well if you need to cool down, look up the current weather in 53818!

But yes, Lisa just got the pleasure of feeling strange when seeing her car "disassembled," it's a weird feeling.

AlexNet0 · 02-21-2009, 02:56 PM

yarisugi · 02-21-2009, 05:14 PM

It looks like you had a car accident. :)

PHXDEMON · 02-21-2009, 10:27 PM

Can't wait to see it done. Are you planning on swapping to a different motor or just dropping in a built 1nz ?

Arkhangel · 02-21-2009, 10:34 PM
