I can't even.

Well I do have to say that my updates on here have been lacking! A lot of business travel has hindered my progress. The plans are to move to the DFW area in TX before the 1st of the year. That being said I should be making solid headway into the upgrades and changes over the coming weeks.

For now I can share that I recently purchased this catalytic converter from Vibrant this last week. There are emissions in TX so I wanted to be sure that I am street legal. It is a very pricey unit, but I spoke with one of the actual design engineers and he strongly recommended it. Most due to the long duration of being in high temp boost scenarios. Most guys are sitting at several seconds at max boost so they are less likely to cause serious thermal wear. I am actually pretty excited to see how it does because they have documented proof with boosted builds of either losing very little or no loss at all compared to a straight through or gutted setup.

A lot of the guys on infamous said that you can pass the TX emissions for $50-100, if you want to do that instead of dinking with your car lol.

Been another few weeks. I just figured out the new pipe routing so had to make some of the purchases. Of course since nothing I do is easy or cut and dry I couldn't just by an intercooler piping kit for example because I need 3 diameters (2.5" for turbo inlet, 2" hot side, and 3" cold into the new TB). We are doing a fully custom one off intake manifold. Once it is fabbed I will share photos.

As for the IC piping order here's what I'm thinking is going to be the final setup:

1- 3" to 2.5" coupler
3- 2.5" couplers
1- 2" to 2.5" coupler
6- 90* 2.5" pipes
2- 180* 2.5" pipes
1- 2.5" straight section of pipe.
1- 3" t-bolt clamp
8- 2.5" t-bolt clamps
1- 2" t-bolt clamp

fnkngrv · 11-12-2015, 07:18 PM

So a few updates photos. Some custom brake line work, heater hose modification, shifter linkage rerouting, turbo mounting, radiator mounting, and IC pipe routing completed plus getting the AC replumbed again. Starting to come together!

LTHatch · 11-12-2015, 08:33 PM

That looks sinister! Cant wait to see how it will look with the new intake manifold.

fnkngrv · 11-12-2015, 11:16 PM

The intake manifold is actually going to be on the passenger side facing the opposite direction as stock to reduce flow directional changes since I am having to stay with the intercooler from last year. It is supposed to be good to up to 22psi of boost so that should be sufficient for now and will evaluate AITs to determine when I will go bigger. This new setup should net a healthy increase in power.

LTHatch · 11-16-2015, 02:59 AM

You seem to be the first in the Yaris community to do that with the manifold, did you figure out what the specs on the manifold will be?(runner length, runner width, plenum size) Completely off topic but i just noticed the carbon fiber valve cover, that looks fantastic! Paint or wrap or?

47_MasoN_47 · 11-16-2015, 04:41 PM

Bro, you are nuts.

tmontague · 11-17-2015, 11:01 AM

awesome to see someone taking this one themselves. I'll definitely be following this and looking forward to seeing the progress.

I'd love to go boosted one day but it seems more of a headache for a DD. The Blitz SC is ideal but out of my price range for now.

47_MasoN_47 · 11-18-2015, 10:09 AM

40k miles on my Blitz so far and nary a problem.

Focus_Sh1ft · 11-18-2015, 05:00 PM

Wow. Coming along nicely!

We will be designing runner length specifically tuned to my turbo and its powerband. The valve cover is hydrodipped CF. It will most likely actually be blasted and redone. I had some rubbing issues with my old IC piping.

Thanks. It has become a love/hate relationship now....haha.

Little more progress. Turbo outlet side IC piping has been completed and test fitted along with the inlet piping.
