Engine mods - why bother?
I have been interested in super/turbocharging a Yaris. However, I have read that the engine will not be able to handle any appreciable extra horsepower without internal mods. So why bother getting CAI, exhaust mods, etc. if it will only add up to about 5 hp increase? It seems it will cost a lot of money to get the Yaris into the 150 hp range.
I guess I need to decide whether or not I want fuel efficiency or power. I wish they would put a slightly larger engine that could handle a turbo. |
