Although, I suppose, with this kind of swap, you wouldn't want to drive at low RPMs ever!
Hey did you get my last PM about the yarisworld sticker and my paypal address?

Anyway, a turbo would help along with racing filters and the like, and maybe the transmission could be modified to adjust the ratio and reduce the top speed/increase acceleration. And I would remove the yaris transmission and get a mechanical LSD and use a custom transmission (or add in an idler gear to have a 6 speed forward and reverse, 250km backwards would be awesome.... )
