Why industries turbo manifold?
http://www.whyindustries.com/store/p...products_id=55
Why would why industries (i know, it sounds funny) design a turbo manifold but no supporting products to correspond with it? Was there a kit that was pulled from their site? Has anyone heard of these guys, or their quality? |

Who said Yaris was slow?

Go to scionlife.com
Do a search for TURBOTOYOTAS. Thats their name. The owner is a guy named Todd. You will find a lot of information... anything from horror stories, of people who waited a year for their parts to be delivered to people who praise them for the quality of their products. About that manifold, Garm (Cali Yaris) has one installed on his car. I believe they tried to come up with a full kit for the yaris but the parts they offered had all kinds of fitting problems. |

yes, the mani is good, pretty much the only good part out of the kit they had. Todd has since stopped making kits, and offers individual parts instead.

Here is another option. This manifold should work for the Yaris
http://www.365motorwerks.com/turbomanifolds.aspx Is the 365 MW manifold for their new scion xb kit. Looks really nice. This guy used to be member of the forum, haven{t seen him for a long time now. |

PLEASE BUY IT and find out for us.
I bet the downpipe wouldn't be the same, probably throttle body, ECU/tuning, piping for sure...

i would be glad to..maybe by xmas time. BUT i have emissions here, how would i remap the ecu for it? how did you do yours cali? as far as the throttle body goes you can get that blitz unit and im sure you would be fine. its the ecu AND the heat issues that im concerned with. how is the heat buildup in your bay caliyaris?

not too bad on the heat, vented hood is recommended
No one has remapped our ECU yet. Matter of fact, I think the car has only been successfully tuned in other countries! At least in CA, adding a turbo kit would make you illegal for smog from both visual and emissions standpoint.
