2ZR-Swapped Turbo Yaris Project

[06YarisRS]

I recently finished installing a turbo kit on my 2006 RS 5-door. Before installing the kit, I swapped in a low mileage 2ZR-FE 1.8L Corolla engine. I also completely painted the car in my homemade cross flow booth.The car is an absolute blast to drive. When the car was dyno tuned, I had a bad BOV and a few small leaks and it produced 155 WHP at a max of 5.5 psi. Since then, I fixed the leaks, re-kitted the BOV, tweaked the wastegate and I'm hitting between 7.5 to 8 psi and estimate about 175 WHP with my new "street" tune which I did myself. 

Here are links to a few threads that document the swap, paint process and turbo kit install. These are long threads.
