To boost/improve Yaris, or move on....?

[OTB]

I appreciate the input. I'll have a look at 4.xx final drive and lsd units. The flywheel feels so light on the stock yaris (heel-toes are just a tiny blip), I hadn't even considered there's lighter ones out there. Since the Yaris makes no torque out of the hole, does the lighter flywheel make streetability really suck (like starting up a hill, etc.)?

Suspension wise-I don't think I could handle the spring rates necessary for pitching the boat anchor (swaybar), due to the car being a street car. Damping adjustable coilovers w/spring rates similar to my MI springs would probably be my route.

Brakes-good to hear! Just like my MR-S, with the right pads, the stock brakes pretty much kick ass.

Wheels-I'll explore the options. 13" would be cool, especially with a smaller overall diameter tire, but for street class time attack, I'm not sure I'll find 13" compatible tires (RE-11, RT-615, Kumho XS, Star Spec, etc.) Race tires seem to be more available in funky sizes.

Again, thanks guys, I certainly studied up on Garm's posts, Jason's article in SportsCar, and Focus's install thread.

I'll try to have a good look at Jason's car at Miller and take some notes.
