blitz s/c
Hi Guys im planning to purchase a blitz s/c from japan for my yaris RS which is also a private import from japan but with CVT gearbox.
i need your advice about this coz a few people told me they do not recommend boosting an auto tranny.i know blitz kit 10168 is made for the 1nzfe with cvt gearbox but i wanna get a good idea before proceeding further.thanks to you all for your input. |

A CTV is different than an Automatic. But I'm pretty sure it still has a torque converter. So if you can, install a transmission cooler to be safe.

Say, how much does a RS imported from JP run?
I can't imagine it being anywhere near worth the cost. After all, the Yaris IS an economy car! lol Sweet ride, no matter how much it cost. |

the guy lives in Mauritius, a lil island off the coast of Africa where pretty much ANYTHING has to be imported, so it'll be expensive no matter where it's from, might as well go JDM!
By the way tropicalrs, I was born and grew up in Reunion, so we went to Mauritius very often on vacation, good times
