Tomatoes Tomagoes? Potatoes Potagoes? You know if someone has a hair brained scheme in their head like the 13b rotary in the yaris like a few have had it will probably happen in the future...

so you're like competing in the special olympics?

if you think a twin turbo yaris will get you laid or win shows then do it, it has no performance benefit over a properly setup single turbo.

Funny enough, I wasn't arguing. Absolutes rarely exist in the real world. I am saying that you cannot shoot any thing down until at least one person does it, and it's tested. People who are closed minded and unwilling to even consider alternative viewpoints will never advance anything. They will always follow what other people advance. They will always suffer the consequences of 2nd hand information. If people who ask "what if" listen to people like you, we'll never get anywhere. I really wanted intelligent discussion on the the possibilities of a twin-turbo yaris, not flames and insults, without proper reasons why it wouldn't work. If that's not possible for you, then I suggest you go somewhere else, we know your opinion already.

haha,

reasons why it's a waste of money.

1.) nearly 2x as heavy as a single turbo
2.) nearly 2x as much piping (and the issues that come with routing piping)
3.) nearly 2x as much oil lines
4.) 10x more custom fabrication for zero benefit
5.) Exactly the same amount of power if not less (due to the excess heat of two turbos)

5 "proper" reasons why it would be a "bad" idea.

oh wait, b/c I didn't suck your balls and say you had the best idea in the world you're sad. haha.

now, if you want to do this, more power to you. I look forward to the progression of your project and I hope you post ALL of your success/failures on here so we can live vicariously through someone who has the means to try something like a twin turbo yaris.

love to see a match up against garm's single when you're done.

no hard feelings but my $$'s on the single turbo setup (obviously).

I couldn't imagine how the hell you'd pipe it... people have a hard enough time doing 1 turbo let alone 2.

The ends DEFINITELY would NOT justify the means, unless you have an endless pocketbook and just want to have the biggest head-turner on Earth.

Chino, please in the spirit of this thread keep the trolling to yourself. ;)

Wow... I am truly hurt to the core of my soul. I heard insults similar to these from some 5th graders the other day and I almost tried to drown myself in the nearest mud puddle. I am just that devastated. You guys should go on tour! You know, insult strangers until they're suicidal in front of an audience... You'd be rich!

Cool, thank you for your input. It is obvious at this point, from previous intelligent posts, that a twin-turbo Yaris would be difficult and expensive at best. I doubt I will ever have the resources to try it. My intention was to ask a "what if" question, to learn what people thought.

After being flamed by certain people, the only thing I've learned is not to bother asking questions that require an open mind and creative thinking here. Personally I'm tired of the child-like atmosphere here, and request this thread to be locked

Thanks

i wasn't insulting you... i was making a too-subtle (for you apparently) point about not trying things that are a bad idea.

you only got flamed AFTER you kept insisting that it was a good idea. .

It's an attempt to subtly be insulting, which failed on many levels. You are also trying to be insulting when you say "(for you apparently)". I got the subtext. I don't appreciate the immature insult mixed in with it. So as my final post on this thread, I repeat my disdain for trolls, and unsubscribe from this thread.

So, do you still think this is a good idea? Would you pursue this avenue of performance enhancing modifications?

At the risk of getting flamed:
Well I think it would be an interesting experiment (interesting to me any way). If I had the time and money, and I had my engine out any ways to turbo it, then I'd love to try it for shits and giggles. Maybe with 2 small turbos, and smaller pipes it'd spool better, after all the engine's so small, I'd think turbo lag would be an issue with 1 large turbo. Maybe the benefits would out weigh the negatives, maybe not. Maybe like you mentioned it would weigh too much, and be too complicated. It was really just a thought experiment. The whole dual everything was just a wild out of the blue thought, that I wanted to discuss with someone. I hadn't even thought about the whole dual throttle bodies thing when I came up with it. A traditional twin-turbo setup must have some benefits, or no one would put them on other cars. I'm not stupid, however. If I skimped and saved to get a turbo setup on my Yaris, I'd go with a proven performer, and get a single turbo. If I had the money to try it, I'd try it.

Threads like this is the reason the Yaris will never get the support of major manufactures & companies. Keep up the good work guys
