i did and you said you would go with this before going with ZPI's turbo kit because some kid blew his piston rings after supercharging his XA.
i know you were asking about ecu pinouts for some kind of engine management but in the thread you posted the pic of the itb's and themn said your comment. |

I also said I would look into swapping much CHEAPER ITB's from, say, a wrecked bike.

VTEC owns us.
Still, those are decent gains for one cheap setup. Notice that is without a tune! 110 octane is a little crazy, but still... looks good so far. Quote:

That's not without a tune. Otherwise the vtec crossover wouldn't be lowered and you can't just drop in 440cc injectors and expect your car to run right.

Thats with a Hondata ECU. The fact that they are running that much octane on stock compression means they have an extremely aggressive timing curve.

Please don't waste your time with ITBs on this engine.

I actually use my car. Dunno about this kind of a change. Not for me. I like this car for the good gas mileage and it takes 87 at that and runs fine.

Yeah not too many people like to take it ITB... But ChinoCharles is a bit of a masochist, and it would certainly be interesting to see what he comes up with.

Perhaps, but that's against his modding philosophy, which I guess could be summarized as "when your car's engine gives you lemons, make lemonade"
Everyone has their style, I guess... turbo, supercharge, NA tune, engine swap, all different paths to a same destination: more powar!

You spent $1400 on top of the $20,000 or so (at least) to have a car that was barely streetable and couldn't take a turn. Sure, smokes in a straight line, but if I wanted that I WOULD HAVE BOUGHT A MUSTANG. Oh, and you're also getting a rip-roaring 9 MPG.
I could spent $18,000 out the door to have a car that I can have a bit of fun with in ANY application... daily driver, road course, drag race, anything. Not a ton of fun, just a bit. Then I can drive home between 2500 and 3500 RPM and still get 30+ MPG. I'd take that over a Cobra with 308757297578 HP any day of the fucking week. Don't even have to think twice about it. I've been in straight line fast cars and they do nothing for me, because you still have to slow your 3 tons of GM down to 25 MPH before you can even think about turning... wait a second, why am I arguing with you? The fact is that people continuously come in my threads and regurgitate the same opinion over and over and over and over... when the opinion has little to nothing to do with the thread topic or this car at all. It has more to do with your personal outlook on fiscal responsibility and motoring in general, and thats great! You're entitled to your opinion. I hope it makes you happy. Having said that... PLEASE STOP TELLING ME THIS SHIT IN MY THREADS. Thank you! Last edited by ChinoCharles; 04-04-2007 at 08:46 PM. |

I think it's cool what your doing and I'd like to see the outcome.
Sorry if I in any way came off like that. Now get to work and let's see what you can do with it!

You didn't, and sorry I came off as a dick. This is just getting ridiculous with the 12 posts a day just naysaying on doing anything to a Yaris. I could understand if I was running around spending tens of thousands of dollars on my car and running into road blocks at every turn, but I don't. In fact, I spend the least of any of you...
EDIT: Pricing on the basic mechanical bits and pieces of the Danstoy ITB kit are $1000. This price gets lower in a group buy situation. It includes no standalone, only the mechanical parts. They said a 30 WHP gain is achievable. Hm hm hm hm hm. Last edited by ChinoCharles; 04-04-2007 at 09:11 PM. |
