Does the Artec with Ecutek give a lot more oomph lower down the rev range compared to OEM? The peak numbers don't sound much different, but I'd imagine it's a whole different driving experience for Artec vs OEM, with both on Ecutek?

Pretty sure it's X-Shift in that

All good @ MarcoB, my concern was resolved diagnosed and all this is good info so was happy to have it here. Now following yours as well (y)

Koenigsegg was 600HP if I remember correctly and used their "free valve" system which means no cams etc - sounds incredible but never actually went in to production for some reason, so Toyota hold the record. I doubt any other company will ever beat it for output as nowadays the focus is not...

At the very least a partial lunatic! 😂 good luck!!

Sorry for derailing the thread there guys. As I said - still fuming 😄😩 @Boosted8 for what it's worth, I ran the 7.5k limit for pretty much bang on a year and did about 6k miles in that time plus a few track days (car is around 45k). So take that for what it is - it might have ran for years or...

Unfortunately not 😢 there was major scoring in one of the cylinders due to oil starvation so it's being rebuilt with a whole new forged bottom end. Dealer denied any responsibility of course, as "you need to see it from our point of view, we can't prove nobody else has been under your car" so...

I had mine revving to 7.5k with no issues. That's with Kelford valve springs, A cams, and Denstoj rocker retainers. There was power all the way through too with my other mods. That was until the oil filter fell off on a track day 1850 miles after service at Toyota Llandudno 🤬🤬

Careful. I ran JR SL04 18x9.5 ET35 with 265 Cup2s and they caught the rear arches on big compression

The map was good, eventually, but the journey there was poor. Over 4 months in total and several times I had to request updates to find out what was going on. In the end, there was some issue with boost fluctuation which he couldn't figure out and meant "going to need to see the car" because...

I had a mapping session done with Litchfield across a few months and it was far from great I'm afraid to say

Where is this being reported? I haven't come across anything like this. There have been reported pressure drops with the OEM oil pan which is resolved by installing baffles. Is that what you mean?

I like you're optimism! 😃 But I can't see there being two models, nor at those prices unfortunately. But it would be nice if so! And yes Celica GT-Four was 4WD. My dad had an ST205. Wicked car.

With those tabs in place it just bolts on - dead easy. Even a numpty like me could manage it. And the tabs aren't glued, them come with tiny strips of sticky pad where required.

It might yet be named "Celica" - Don't care. WANT!

With the Yaris going for pretty much £50k, I'll be surprised if this is below £70k, or even £80k 😱

Really?! I could have sworn they were closer but fair enough, it still won't fit though 😄

If you go Aero diffuser @GRavy_Baby then bear in mind you may need Gen2 backbox too, as G2 exhaust tips are closer together. Although I'm sure I recall someone on here mentioning that the Gen1 bumper has cutout outlines for the aero vents 🤔 Yep here it is, if I'm reading this right -...

I agree this bumper does look the part, it's a shame Toyota never took inspiration for the Aero pack. I think those vents are a bit meh personally, barely noticeable. I'm now planning to get my Toms vents sunk in to the bumper and painted red to match. I think that'll be the best compromise.

I also had the window seal replaced under warranty about a year ago before my warranty recently ended and couldn't notice any difference whatsoever. The issue began a couple of years ago, one day it just sounded windy from the front triangle area. So yeah I agree that something else is at fault...
