MARCH 12 UPDATES:

No new pics, but Art tells me the wiring is now 90% complete. YES!

More news Sunday night...

So we'll soon have word when you'll be selling your old turbo kit you made?

jkuchta · 03-13-2009, 11:21 PM

This is going to be Bitchin' once it's done bro!

cali yaris · 03-14-2009, 01:39 AM

old turbo kit is in there for now! no changes until we swap motors.

Gideon · 03-14-2009, 02:55 AM

Awwwww.

Nexus1155 · 03-14-2009, 09:38 AM

I didn't know if anything was done Cali, i was going to call you and see if i can come by to check it out, I was in Perris, CA, but i had no time on my hands :-/

cali yaris · 03-14-2009, 12:42 PM

Next session on the car is tomorrow. Either piping or cable/throttle is next, I would imagine.

CtrlAltDefeat · 03-17-2009, 12:57 AM

gah I'm so sick of the lack of Yaris love on YouTube... Can you or any one for that matter make some good turbo Yaris race videos I can use as examples?

cali yaris · 03-17-2009, 03:22 AM

I guess Art needed some extra wires.

Here is what's left of the stock engine wiring harness.

That looks like a fun mess to play with

cali yaris · 03-17-2009, 10:45 PM

working on the gas pedal on Thursday - last major tech hurdle.

eTiMaGo · 03-17-2009, 10:51 PM

I can imagine... gonna retrofit an xA/xB one or go bespoke?

cali yaris · 03-17-2009, 11:47 PM

dunno, we have an xB intake manifold coupled to an xB throttle body. Just need a pedal and cable. ...might try and make the stock pedal work somehow.

Praitaq · 03-18-2009, 12:42 AM

This is one of the sickest builds I've seen yet. Just wish I had the $$ to do something similar to mine :p Keep up the work and make us proud!
