NEWS FLASH!!! A Yaris is slow even with a header, pulley, intake, exhaust, lightweight oil filter cap, high performance windshield washer fluid tank, color matched badges, less than 1/2 a tank of gas, and you cutting your legs off to save weight.

LOL- he has a point.

Seriously, you will lose bottom end grunt with an exhaust. It will get worse with a header.

Seriously, I just ordered the ZPI exhaust but I don't want to lose low end power. Will this really happen?

yes it does affect your high end... but its great for racing and drifting...

you need that so your car breathes at high RPM "thats what I always need at the light when a Camaro's beside you"...

get a turbo after you get the exhaust, they have financing available ...
