I tried to do a faster time. I believe it is, just by a hair. For those with stopwatches, what are you clocking it at?

I start the time from when the needle starts moving.I stop the time right when it hits 60. Since the camera is on the right, it is actually a hair off.

HORRIBLE quality. Sorry. Squint those eyes.

Click "HD" to get a bigger version of the video. Click full screen too if you want a closer look.

I am confident that with my 2.25" header back exhaust setup (soon to be installed), I will be able to break into the 7s. Then I have a 1zz throttle body on it's way too. So if the new exhaust doesn't get me into the 7s, the combo of the exhaust and TB should! hah

It's pretty humbling seeing these times. Especially when the torque and overall power of the car seems MUCH improved. Oh wells.

Doesn't a supercharger make an engine lag slightly at first, but then go faster once it hits a certain point? So wouldn't a naturally aspirated yaris get a slightly better 0-60?

If I may suggest, a useful little device which I have (but never really fully used yet), the a'pexi RSM:

http://www.apexi-usa.com/product_ele...=199&pageNum=1

Think of it like a Scangauge for performance data... It can display RPMs and speed, but also measure 0-60, 0-100, 0-200 (), quarter-mile, estimate horsepower, etc etc

It's a little pricey around $250ish, and to get the most accurate results you'd need to get an optional G-sensor, but it'd be waaay more accurate than taking a video and timing it later with a stopwatch

Plus it looks cool and works great as a semi-heads up display for tach and speedo (i.e. put it on your dash in front of you like I have)

any more gauges and it will look like a fighter plane cockpit

that's a turbo. S/C is instant power since it works off the belt.

Ah maybe one day. But I still neeed to pay for my exhaust setup, autometer electric boost/vacuum, oil pressure, and wideband a/f gauges; then a dyno! So maybe after all of that. But until then, stopwatch!

We have gotten some very accurate readings with this little tool:http://www.dynolicious.com/, when compared to actual 1/4 mile runs.

Or, to take the launch out of the equation, just time yourself from a rolling start (say 10-15 mph). You should be able to get pretty consistent and repeatable times to within 2 tenths of a second by doing it that way.

aaah nice and geeky But yeah, since iPhones have both GPS and accelerometers built in, this should work pretty well!

Peter, what camera mount do you use in your car? I want a picture of it.

I use the one where you stick the camera in between the headrest and the top of the passenger seat. lol. I got the idea from someone else who did it on this forum. My camera is small so it can fit easily. Just gotta squeeze it in between the headrest and the seat.

I forgot to zoom in so you could see the tach, so I had to use the zoom on movie maker. Lame. Promise to never make a video in that horrible quality ever again in my lifetime.

Expect more videos tomorrow since I'll be installing the new exhaust!

I haven't done a full tank in setting "low" yet. That setting makes it so I barely press the gas and the compressor kicks in. But noogie said it's around 30mpg if you do a tank in low. I switch between "off" and "low", but i still haven't calculated it yet. I do miss my previous great mpg. It will only get worst once I add my exhaust and larger throttle body.. :(

With 2007 manual hatch with intake /exhaust I ran 8.6 to 60 and 16.8 in the quarter mile using a g-tech. It would be nice if you could run a quarter mile as the 0-60 seems slow at 8 seconds, the longer you go the more time I think you will make up. I think mid to high 15's

Peter, where is the picture of your rear seat sitting on the side of the road? Lighten that load!

If I'm not mistaken, those SSRs are 16". Get some 15"s or better yet 14"s.

WHoa noogie, what am I, made of money!? I have come to a realization that the yaris isn't fast. Yes, I've said it. One last hope: 1zz throttle body. After that, off to the dyno and i'm done!

No more wheels. I already have the backseat out. New thread for my exhaust coming soon..
