GT17 too small?
Just curious. If so, what size? GT20, 25, 28?
Plan to start at 7psi and maybe graduate to 8. No engine management, for now No intercooler right away, may do top mount later TC or 1ZZ injectors

Who said Yaris was slow?

Get the GT2554R
That is the smallest garrette BB turbo. You can get it new from $800-$900 You can get an even smaller Journal B turbo like a GT20 but eventually when you want to upgrade your set up, those units just won't put out any top end power... You can get easily over 200 whp with the GT2554 and still have a pretty fast spool up time. |

Thanks! Any recommendations on a place to buy?

That's a good choice. 7 psi, no I/C and no management might give you 140-150 whp, I think.

That would be plenty of power. Now the question would be, how safe is that set up?
If I knew the 1nz-fe volumetric efficiency and the air flow at a given rpm, then I could read the compressor maps and decide. Anyone know? I've been looking through some honda and scion forum classifieds, I see alot of t3/t4s for sale. I'd really prefer no lag or very little obviously. A friend of mine had a t3/t4 on his B16 but I can't remember if he had lag or not. Plus vtec made it hard to tell anyway I'm sure. Hope to come across a GT25 soon.

If I can get away without detonation and being lean, which I think is feasible, I think I'll be fine. I'm here to gain knowledge though so I'm open to suggestions. I may go with a TMIC, depending if I can find one designed to my likings.

The T3/T4 will create way too much lag at low boost; it's just not the right choice for your intended application.

Real world experience is what makes it good or bad. I am pointing out two cases where it worked fine. Do you have a real-world case where a Yaris (or other 1.5L) failed from running a low-boost application without management?
Your sarcasm does not contribute to the discussion -- your real experiences do!

this is a returnless fuel system buddy ;) buy a wideband, put in some larger injectors, and go to town. the car will take care of timing at 7psi.

You don't need a built motor and tones of mods to put a turbo on your car. Id look forward to blowing up my motor so i could just rebuilt it stronger and go again. I'd say go for it and turbo the stock motor with 7psi. Don't let The Spectacle discourage anyone.

My objections aren't about boosting a stock motor, its about boosting any motor without the proper supporting modifications of which the primary, and most crucial component is engine management.
