Almost tempted to make a trip to Miami next Friday...

Sent them another email...hopefully they will contact me this time.

Also included a Spanish translation, hopefully this could solve any problems if there is any.

They could just be a shop that fabbed this up, cant get it perfect, but dump the product out there already.

I am pretty sure they are busy on the Email side of things, and have a tendency to get backed up...so I am giving them time, I am still going to call Monday morning.

Looks like you won't be able to run a strut bar with this kit, no?

You miiiight be able to, but more than likely not if the piping is setup the way it is. Maybe they could try and find a more suitable piping setup for a more modified Yaris, (me)

Yup, such as Garm's configuration, right?

Looks like it's behind the front bottom grill.

Wow, wonder why they made the piping so long. Probably to avoid taking in heat from that engine.

No clue. I know ZPI had the filter poking out just to the right of the engine. Wouldn't a longer piping slow down the air flow????

I guess it depends on what they had available... Plus, i assume the farther away you have the intake from the turbo, it would result in the coldest possible air.

You can see the intercooler in the pics from the Youtube vid.

Im still awaiting info from the shop owner.

Can't see the youtube vid but according to them will the stock ECU relearn and tune itself for boost or something?

Just from the no customer service and lack of knowledge, and how cookie cutter all their kits are, doesn't look like a good kit, it might work, but prolly needs work.

I know as just the turbo, a t3 is kinda overkill for the small motor and amount of hp wanting to be pushed, t25's are sufficient enough. It just seems that they only have a supply of t3 turbos, and don't want to use anything else.
