2008 Yaris?

Hi All,

I've been eying a yaris for a while, and I hear there is a facelift/new style yaris for the 2008?

I think I want to trade my car in for a Yaris. any suggestions on packages I should be getting, somewhere to boost about.... 270ish hp like my car now?

Benzo to Denzo? Quality upgrade..... the LB is getting a sport package for 08, that is the only addition that we know of at this time, you want 270whp in a car this light it is going to be like a rocket, but you are going to have to do a complete overhaul of the motor, imo not worth it, more cost effective to just do a motor swap if you are going for that much power 2zz-ge is where it is at, you can put that motor at 270whp with bolt ons.

but remember 270hp in that benzo that weighs what 4000lbs and the yaris that has 110hp that weighs 2300lbs is very comparable, with a few bolt ons to the stock Yaris motor I bet you could run circles around that 270hp Benzo....

270 hp out of a 2ZZ-GE with bolt-ons? Only if you consider a turbo kit, upgraded fuel management, and tuning a bolt on.

If I can get 270 hp out of a 2ZZ-GE with bolt ons, then I'm not getting a Yaris -- I'm getting a used Celica GT-S.

And there's no way short of you putting a 2ZZ-GE in a Yaris (or a turbo 2ZZ-GE) that you're going to run circles around that Benz if it's putting down 270 hp. (to the wheels) or even 230 hp to the wheels (270 flywheel hp, minus 15% driveline loss).

Man oh man, I love it when people push the idea of an engine swap that has never been done by anything short of a speed shop or someone overseas and has nothing documented proving its ease.

If you want 270 HP you're considering the wrong car... unless you have gobs and gobs of money, in which case buy the thing, pick an engine and call a tuner.

If you are that rich to even think about engine swaps, might as well import a Yaris TS from Europe. *Make sure it's LHD*

Then import every piece of TRD made for NCP91 from Japan. Get a set of Weds Sports. And You have a TRD Vitz Cup Race Car.

Also 270 from a C230K? what did you do to your car?

Give me your Yaris... and $25,000, and I can do it for you!

It will take me a month (ordering parts and all)

But I can do it!

I think the Mercedes is a perfect choice for a person with a extremely small penis. I personal could ride a pink scooter with sparkle streamers on the Handel bars and still get laid.

Some people do NEED family sized sedans and Mercedes make nice cars. People who need to compensate for something don't drive Mercs, they usually drive some big ass American car with a fart can on the back and as much cheap shit as they can possibly tack on.
