your welcome. Essentially it is a very easy install. But I am very much a visual learner and so I thought I make it as much as visual as I could possibly make.

I'm not sure what you are basing your conclusions on... I would have to politely disagree with your statement.

This is in fact the battery most Yaris, Civic, Scion, AE86 Corolla, and other small 4cylinder owners use to power their cars.

This battery is MUCH lighter than the OEM battery and has as good, if not better, specs than the OEM battery.

For those looking for more power, we have other options available.

We have these specs, info, etc listed on our website...
http://www.nonstoptuning.com/BRAILLE...Batteries.html

More info can be also be found in the following discussion thread...
http://www.yarisworld.com/forums/showthread.php?t=13281

And even more specs, data, and info can be found on Braille's own website...
www.braillebattery.com

Braille offers many many different options. All options are MUCH lighter than OEM, and we have access to the entire product line.

This thread here is a very good installation guide.

For those who have technical questions, or need more data, it may be a good idea to post such questions in the discussion thread linked above.

Good luck and have fun with all your projects everyone.

I've also checked with Toyota, and done quite a bit of research.

We would not recommend anything to our customers knowing that it will not work for them. As I have stated before, and as many have confirmed, the 11lb and 15lb Braille are very good options for the Yaris.

As listed on our website, and in the threads I linked above, you may want to do a bit of reading here...

http://www.hondatuningmagazine.com/t...ion/index.html

This may not be the best option for your specific needs, it may be a great option but you are not aware of it, or there may be other factors all together.

Please don't contribute to the spreading of bad information on the internet.

Thanks again, good luck and have fun with all your projects.

its not bad info its true the little battery has less power if you called toyota you know im right are you the same guy that same guy that sells the usless pully's also ? its a fact nothing else here to say since you seem to be in love with this brand of bettery and or you have personal gain either way guess thats why the specs were not listed here . im not trying to get in a pissing contest with you . but dont tell me ( Please don't contribute to the spreading of bad information on the internet.) light weight smaller batterys come at a cost of less cold cranking power (tell me im wrong) less weight does not mean anything if the car wont start !!!

Thanks again, good luck and have fun with all your projects.

"Useless pulleys"? You're kidding, right?
Do you even have a set installed?

You're not gonna get very far on this forum talking shit about NST pullies. I've read/seen close to 100 people on here who are VERY happy with their pullies.

I've also never heard anything but good things about the braille batteries.

Yes, I am the same guy from the same company that sells the pulleys that thousands of customers have written about, 100% of them happy with their purchases...

www.YarisWorld.com
www.ScionLife.com
www.MicroImageOnline.com
www.club4ag.com
www.86garage.com
www.8thCivic.com
www.XR-Underground.com
www.houston240sx.com

etc etc etc.

You can also search those forums, and you will find that those who have purchased the batteries that we have recommended have been very happy with their purchases.

You are welcome to post with your data, or your personal experiences on NST pulleys or Braille batteries... we have the proper threads for such data. Otherwise it is your word based on no data or firsthand experiences, vs. the word and firsthand experiences of the many who have nothing but positive things to say about these products.
