The Blitz Electronic Supercharged Toyota Yaris!

,

The little Yaris can hold its own at track days!

Even with the Blitz Supercharger the Yaris isn't fast.  However, the addition of the supercharger transforms the car from boring to fun.  With less than 2300 lbs to pull around the Yaris feels lively something perhaps a little less than an Si EK Civic which is a little heavier with a little more power.  The feeling is something like perhaps a stock torquy B14 Sentra SE-R with the lower rev limit.  This is probably due to the wide powerband and flat, large area under the torque curve that the Blitz supercharger provides. 

In our opinion this is how the car should have come from the factory. Is the kit worth the $3700 dollar street price?  Well if you have a Yaris already, it's most likely if paid for and you like the car and are going to keep it a few years, maybe. If you are a B segment fan, then the answer is a resounding yes!

  1. I like the underdog sleeper status of the little yaris and with the manual transmission its perfect for the mtn region I live in,which is full of luxury SUVs ,a little since of satisfaction in out preforming a $40,000 escalsde with my paid for (i brought it salvage title,so cheap) stock 3dr version I like the factual and helpful information on your site .I would take any other upgrade suggestions you guys would E-mail to me,thanks for your work

      1. This kit is now dosconituned, you can find them used on Japanese Auctions. We run one our project Vitz here in Australia, (Gorilla Industires). Its been a great upgrade and in 4 years and multiple track days, I have had not a single issue. Nolw with a Vitz RS Turbo LSD gearbox, its just been the cherry top, but im now chasing more power. I love driving this over my 550hp Supra lol!

  2. Ive bought a amr500 supercharger and it will be installed in a 1nzfe
    What other mods should i do to have a reliable running car example what should i change….the injectors??…fuel pump…??
    Im guessing the stock fuel pump would be okay to handle around 150hp….

  3. I drive something like this. Modified and took 2 yrs to build my 08 Yaris. I love putting newer mustangs, challenger’s, etc.. in their places. I’ve absolutely demoralized some drivers, especially since I’ma girl and I built my car 100% cuz fuck shops, I actually got my own now. Sorry, I drive a built not financed car. QQ. One thing that’s amazing with the Yaris is how light it is. I’ve gutted the hell out of my car and replaced a lot of stuff with lighter aftermarket. The low weight with a kit, makes this a beast. I’m currently converting my Yaris over for rally only and going to build another for drag.
