I want to start with what is probably the most important piece of max FE. How do you all set up your yaris for air induction? Is there a wonderful computer mod as well? My wife likes to accel quickly/ brake fast.
Thanks,
J Wilhelm

i went for the AFE intake from microimage , it is really a personal choice thing , and what you consider value for money. :thumbsup:

You might benefit from learning how to drive correctly for maximum fuel economy before changing engine systems,getting a Yaris is a good start. This hypermiling site is a good place to learn how to maximise MPG http://www.cleanmpg.com/forums/
Good luck and welcome to the forum.

Any benefits of an air system modification (or anything else you can do to the car) will pale next to the massive tank-sucking caused by driving as you describe. It's whizzing in the Pacific. Forget it.

That's not going to get you fuel efficient results no matter what you do to the car. 95% of fuel efficiency is the driver.
