Yes thats true, I'm kinda broke as a joke right now. And Parmas I am intrested in your injectors and I will let U now when I have some more dollars,rubles,euro's or yen. I need to get that aem fic first to see what duty cycle my injectors are runing at first.
I installed my turbo heat sheild yesterday. It was a little difficult to wrap around a turbo with a internal wastegate. I have more sharp edges. I got it wraped and it does not interfere with the wastegate. It does not look pretty and I have some more work to do around the manafold. I gotta say this stuff works great though. Cooled temps down a lot. I finally installed my wipers and windsheild cowl. Its warm under the hood but not like the oven it was before. Also I carry a fire extinguisher in the car now for safety. The heat sheild did not smoke at all, good stuff. though.http://www.heatshieldproducts.com/hp_armor.php

I tested both actuators out of the car and not attached to anything but my compressor. So I dont think it could be any thing else. Its not like the wastegate is binding. Also when installed in my car it will go over 10 psi and maintain it. I refused to hit the gas any harder just to see how high it will go. With a storng spring attached and pulling the oposit direction I have it limited to 6-7 psi. I can tell U both the actuators I have require a lot of force to pull open or compress spring. You need two hands. Its just to much boost for my weee little Yariee. If In was sporting forged rods, pistons and proper fueling I would not worry about 10-15psi. But right now Im running lean at 6-7psi. My car is a 2009 and Im not ready to be ginny pig to see how much it can handle.

Pimp: I just noticed from the last pic you posted that you W/G has an adjustable rod. Have to tried to turn down your boost with that? Also I have the 1ZZ injectors on my car which are 240cc & my car runs very rich. This of course without correction from the AEM FIC. IMO & experience any injector larger than that is not necessary for our HP/boost level & also with be difficult to tune due to it being so big.

The AEM unit will handle a 380cc injector. I used these injectors on a 14g turbo with no issues. Just do the smart thing and have a reliable tunner tune your car.

These are Precision turbo injectors that are port matched. That means they all flow the same. Be sure to run a 255l hr. walboro pump as well.

Between these injectors and a walboro pump you have plenty of room to grow without the fear of running lean.

One more thing, if that turbo dosen't work out for you...let me know I have a like new Greddy 14G turbo in a box at home. I had a new impeller and shaft put in it and had it freshened up for later on down the line incase I found use for it. But I'd let it go cheap for someone in need. Like 400.00....Hell I'll even give you the Greddy exhaust manifold that is jet-hot coated black with it.

Keep me posted. Let me know if you want the injectors or need help with something else. I got more shit laying around from T/E than you can imagine. I even have a Blitz S/C in a box. So hit me up if you need something or advice.

Yah...so does the XB. But that's not a problem. Do what I did run a regulator put a fuel bung in your tank and make it return. It's to easy! Think outside the box

XBG

[xbgod]

Of course you will need a new fuel rail to make it return. Call Perrin Performance. Yes I know, they don't make them no more. Bullshit, they have a box of them on the floor in brushed aluminum with no fuel line hooked to them. They will garage sell them for 110.00 and all you do is get a piece of #6 line and your golden. Or call OBX for that knock-off one.

I have that rod adjusted just tight enough to close the wastegate with only a small amount of pull. Unfortunatly the spring tension is not adjustable. I think I am starting to figure out why it is so tight though. That spring U see in the picture that is pulling against the wastegate to open it sooner. The wastegate is opening at 3psi now. But boost still creeps up to 5psi at higher rpm. The turbo is small and the wastegate hole is very small. I think at such low psi the wastegate is not very effective because their isn't much load on the turbo [ie: its not pumping much air]. Once I get fuel ratio under control I would like to run about 7-8psi. Then I think I can avoid the boost creep.

XBG: Did you know that the Yaris runs a returnless fuel system?

[cdydjded]

K just making sure....

[xbgod]

no problem.....If there's a will there's a way. Never settle for can't be done or thats impossible. Thats just someone else to afraid to do the unknown. Look at me 70mm T/B on a Weapon-R intake manifold. No one else has done it, but I did.

Trust me Im with you, look & my profile, Im one of the few boosted Yaris here, I made the kit myself

[pimp my yaris]

Total spent so far 1680$ Recent purchases: AEM wideband, various oil and coolant line fittings and some hose for coolant lines.

[xbgod]

Another thing gentlemen, I see alot of fittings being bought at ACE hardware or Home Depot. Were not retro-fitting a toilet so use quality fittings that handle pressure and are designed for our particular use.

Russell, Earls or keithblack or even precision performance make great fittings and lines.

If people show enough interest I can gladly get a bulk buy of fittings and lines.I just need to know what your looking for.

[Focus_Sh1ft]

Funny, because I'm waiting for my wideband but had my FIC right from the get-go.

I should be able to begin tuning next week so we gotta help each other out.

How exactly are you planning on going about this? Clamp MAF, remap, watch STFT, then adjust fuel maps?

[pimp my yaris]

I used a couple of brass fittings from ace because my car is a daily driver and I could not wait to order them. Had to get to work. But believe me my car does not leak a single drop or burn any oil. I will replace my fittings and rubber oil return line with aluminum fittings and -8an braided line once more important fuel issues are sorted out.

[xbgod]

Ok brother. just want your stuff right.....
