Don't you have an automatic? I highly doubt a transmission built to propel a 106HP 2300# car will take the extra power and torque.

Yaris automatic trans will take up to 190FTLBS of torque. Above that it will depend on the abuse it will take daily.

Techtom do list the NCP91 ECU as one that's compatible with their reprogramming tool. TRD also offer different variations for the Japan and Asian market Vitz Cup teams as well as for the OEM Toyota turbo models found in those markets.

I'm confident there will be reflash options for our stock ECU more readily available at some point. The main delay would be lack of a market/demand not complexity since many US based tuners have already proven that Canbus and other complexities in newer ECUs are only small hurdles in cracking and reprogramming the code.

I spoke with Tadashi personally, he has no will to mess with 2000+ toyota ecu's. Now if the supra comes out next year then maybe he will reconcider.

If TRD comes out with a supercharger or turbo option then a TRD reflash will help eliminate the barriers.
I hope that happens soon.
Unitl then AEM will have a unit out within months for many 4cyl. toyotas.
I agree however that demand holds back the tehnology not the CANBUS.
Just that at the present time no one has any tool available that will work with this particular ecu.

We have been building a Time Attack Yaris. We originally wanted to go with an Auto. After sending the internals to one of our sponsors they came to the conclusion that it was limited to approx 190 Ftlbs.
We chose to go with the manual and cryo.
