Guys,
I've been following this mod for a while now,

If I'm correct the newer yaris models have electronically controlled TB. Well, I looked under my hood and see sort of like a cable running from the pedal to the TB, I can rev my engine by turning this swivel.

Yes, this mod only applies to the Drive by wire system that is in the ( i believe) '05 and newer

I'm not 100% positive on this but the scion xa/xb owners have done a swap with an older 1zz throttle body which is drive by cable like yours. check the forums @ scionlife.com you should be able to dig up more info.
