if you are not satisfied with the aftermarket parts available for our YARIS, then then let it be and tarde in your YARIS, becuase i did NOT buy this car so i can get 200hp out of it, this is plain and simple a fuckin' commuter car not a high performance vehicle, not 500hp automatic, not a civic (aftermarket heaven), and not a beast.
But believe me like with any other car there are some individuals with a Yaris with the FUNDS and the MEANS to make this a monster, because they make it happen for themselves.
If you want POWER ZPI has a Turbo kit waiting for you and it will work in your automatic, and if you do not like ZPI for some reason, get a BLITZ or GREDDY SC and with some minor mods you will have some extra ponies, and if you say anything about all these mods costing too much, what did you think horsepower was cheap? even the least amount of HP cost money.
If money is not and issue for you then, you have nothing to complain about go out and make it happen for yourself, post some picks when you are done and just sit back, while we drool!!!!!

Well, regarding the ZPI, it is allot of money, and a new product, i'd rather wait to see how it works out for those brave enough to install it, the superchargers you mention are not for this car..and require engine management, fuel control etc...I was hoping after a year we would see a few more option, plug and play, ready to go...
yes HP cost's money, I think I paid $250 to add 30hp (I don't have the exact figures right now)to my pt cruiser, and others with the srt-4 are adding 140hp for aprox $2000, so a ZPI turbo at $3000 for maybe 50HP is a big difference...
and again you are correct, I had no intention of modding this car, it was bought as a commuter car, but it's nice to have some toys under the hood. it's in my blood.
