View Full Version : Turbo Kit for Sale/Trade

Back again, the deal with chino didn't go through (I no longer had the opportunity to cruise out to ohio at my leisure by the time he was ready to do the deed).
-----
This is the ZPI kit - emanage/14b/FMIC with a 2.5" stainless exhaust that has a resonator nothing else. I have a tach and boost guage that would be included. The kit has 40k of trouble free miles on it, I have an auto so the turbo didn't have alot of stress on it (for the sake of the tranny, which is still holding perfectly!). People will rag on the ZPI setup of using the emanage in limp mode, but I've got 40k on the *original* tune with 0 issues!!!! If you don't want the emanage thats fine too, knock off $100 :)
I'm just south of chicago, and am more than willing to let someone sit in the passenger side/race their yaris to show them the difference, 7psi of boost on this light car is dramatic and extremely worth the upgrade... especially with a deal like this!!!!
If interested give me a call - 77367774961. I don't have much opportunities to get online so calling would be the best.
----
I can sell it outright, its on the car now but the car is currently sitting in my garage awaiting removal. $750 for everything, the 2.5" stainless exhaust (which is in great condition) + resonator would be free with this deal if you want it.. otherwise I'll use what I can on my celica.
If you want to trade for stock parts we can work it out.
I'd have to calculate shipping, it depends on how it would fit in a box... I'd say around $50 for most of the US.
Ready when you are!

Good deal. So it ran fine with the emanage tune? Did you dyno it? Was it on a sedan or liftback yaris?

Kenny @ ZPI did one hell of a job in tuning this car!!!! They used the dyno tune that "turboyaris" had done and modded it slightly... so its "based' on a dyno tune.
It was on a liftback, IIRC the kit also fits sedans, the liftbacks bumper had less space so there was some modding done... but I do believe what I have fits both Yarii.
Dug out those pics finally!
The air filter pic'd is replaced by a AEM dryflow, btw.

The kit is good for any amount of boost this motor would realistically take... the 14b is plenty capable of giving this little 1.5 all it can handle - see the 10 second 14b eclipse :cool:
The emanage, SSQV, and external wastegate setup IMO is absolutely optimal... a ball bearing turbo would be nice, and even with a brand new ball bearing (insert turbo of your choice) + this kit your coming out way cheaper than a new kit with a lesser turbo.
The kit can go without the turbo if wanted... frankly if I was to get this kit I'd go that route and get a new 14b (under $600 easily) just for piece of mind.

I remember when this kit was in prototype phase and in production. I think I even got a ride in yours back in the day. Even though ZPI is no more, their kit was pretty decent for the Yaris.
I have all but the emanage and turbo for this kit still in storage. This is a good start for someone.

ZPI (Zero Point Industries) was a company that specialized in making turbocharger kits for multiple platforms, including the TC, Yaris, and others...
They came into troubles with many customers for not delivering product, or just taking forever to do so...In other words, shady company...
But from what we know of the 2 Yaris that came of the company, the kit runs fine. (Although about 3 months after 1 kit was put together, the car was totaled in an accident)
So before the company went belly up, they produced 2 working Yaris turbokits, which they claimed put down like 180ish whp.

If I could pull the tune from the emanage I'd love to post it up here for posterity :)
Hopefully whoever gets it does that, it would be a great addition to the community... I've read alot of the turbo threads and most everyone has tuning issues with a few exceptions... the limp mode/emanage route I'd say I proved to be absolutely reliable.. Kenny @ ZPI definitely knew what he was doing.
Staring at a CEL isn't so bad when listening to the turbo whistling you into your seat :)
Its basically sold, I'm just going to leave it to whoever actually puts down the dough first.

I'm just a little confused. Seems he flipped the rules of the game... now he is selling the kit and shipping it? If that were the case in the first place, I would have bought the damn kit! LOL. He originally said he wanted someone to swap parts off the car, which I was fine with. The hang up on this end of things was scheduling a weekend where we could have our tools in place, use someone's garage, and swap two Yarii's worth of induction parts. Not an easy task, and you have one chance to get it right. Now that the weather broke I was hoping to contact Mark and shoot for next weekend, but I guess that is over and done with. I still would buy it, but he wouldn't be shipping it to me. It would have to be an in-person deal.
I'll take this opportunity to remind everyone that if you send someone $800 and never get a turbo kit, it isn't YW's problem. I'd suggest making transactions like this in person.

I didn't have my celica at the time so if I pulled the turbo I had no transportation, and the weekend scheduled I had no way to make it. I actually ended up working that saturday and sunday... turned into an 80 hour week with a 1.5 hour commute each way.
Now I have another car so the rules CAN change :) I like this way better anyway, works out easier for everyone and gives me an excuse to patch up every little this and that and get the yaris spotless top to bottom.
I don't mind cruising over there, maybe meet in ft wayne or something like that... but now you'd have to hop in the back of the line and chances are I'll be sold out before your up :)
Sorry it didn't work out... I was really looking forward to doing the swap - making a little YW history :)

I myself keep jumping on and off this thread.
I see two things happening, maybe one is wrong, maybe both are wrong.
The person was sent a check for the turbo kit, and now everything plays the waiting game.
At the same time, a lot of talk and arguments are clouding up this thread, and I dont see the reason why? Honestly I would start another thread just on this guy selling the kit, if its really that important, and leave this thread to what it was made for, because it really is not fun to hear all this fighting.

I usually agree, but because of who it is (a banned member), I'm just entertained by the whole thing. Kind of like admitting you're hooked on American Idol or something.
Hoping for the best outcome, of course.
I appreciate that members try to protect each other here by making sure full disclosure is made. I will point out that the seller said nothing of his former history on this forum, so it was fair for someone to state it for prospective buyers.

Jeez, sorry I got under your skin! I was kidding...
Why is my opinion different? 1, that was two years ago, and 2, its a good opportunity for one of our members to get a turbo kit. Now, if I would have known from the beginning that he was looking for a ship and remote pay type thing, I would have banned him again. That wasn't the premise this started on though.

Worst case situation, just like last time...
Check get cancelled do to fraud and the bank goes after him if its cashed.
Actually the worst case for ME happened, well, almost :)
I got a bad check... VERY happy that I waited for that thing to clear before shipping...
Worst case would be shipping a turbo for free... now I'm just in the negative because I assumed all was well... bad but not worst case.
On that note I haven't been able to get back in touch with the buyer to straighten things out - the check went sour monday and I got a message tuesday or wednesday asking if it had shipped yet... I'll assume no foul play here but I did hear from the bank that a stop payment was the reason for the check going bad - not lack of funds...
I'll leave this post (although I have already sent pm's, texts, calls...) as the last FYI to the buyer that things have went south...
And the first FYI to those who were interested to please re-apply for this great deal - I would like to get my bank account bank into the positive asap :)
I squared away my past issues and intend to follow through with this deal as smoothly as any - but I *will not* accept anything but cash or a money order this time around. NO paypal, NO checks, and I will not entertain any offers of either.
And again, the best way to reach me is by phone - 7736774961. I don't have ready net access (right now I'm at the library).
I found someone to take over my payments, I want this deal hammered out ASAP so I can throw on the stock parts/new pads/new windshield and eliminate one large source of debt from my life :)
