some guy put a harley motor into a Ford Festiva once. I think a sport bike motor would have trouble with a car that weighs so much. Maybe I'm wrong though.

If it turns a smart car into a burnout machine, I think it would provide ample power for a Yaris.
A well-tuned turbo Busa engine outputs 400 HP. No modifications required. They're built to run. |

Its not the HP its the torque. Of course it would move the car but what happens when it trys to pull a 2200# car up a hill. I mean I could be way off base here, not that it even matters.

It may matter. Some kid with $10,000 to blow might run across this thread and make my day. I've met these people before, and they're all crazy.

Either the 'Busa engine or the ZX-14 engine would both have more torque than the 1NZ. Not to mention about 80 more HP.
I just popped a boner thinking about the exhaust note of a Yaris with that swap in it. |
