I have searched all the web for tunes for this particular engine. And I had no luck till now. I can't even find an aftermarket exhaust header.

So I would love to see this topic grow, with members that own this engine and they were able to find something.

There are not any compatabilities or similarities with the 1NZ motors since the 1NR-FE uses dual vvti technology. This means that we have different air filters, exhausts, the nst pulley kit doesn't work on our engine etc, so you see that all the good stuff that are made for yaris, isn't available for us.

The only thing I have find so far (and really after a ton of search) is an apexi dry air filter (I didn't want to by Oil based filter for the obvious reasons) which I brought today and I was lucky since this was the last available.

My next thing on my to do list is an exhaust header to help the engine breathe a little less restrictively.

Engine swap is out of the question. First of all because I have a perfectly working engine, with low mileage (117.000 km). Secondly it's not legal to swap engine. You have to change the car's license and here in Greece it's something really time consuming. Also, 1.8L engines in my country have much more taxis to pay. And they are not gas-efficient. And finally an engine swap is expensive. I can custom turbocharge my engine for much less in a professional shop.
