When increasing compression or adding boost to your car you want to use high octane gas.

You can still blow your engine with nos or starting fluid. I don't like nos because it can run out, and constantly have to refill. As for cars of faster performance, I bought this car because it encompassed everything I wanted. If I wanted I could have bought a used (insert car here) instead of a newer XD. I don't want a drag queen, I like that's a hatch back, I like the fuel economy, I like that I don't see them everywhere, I like that its fairly light, and I like the dependability and resale value. This is an enthusiast site, and I can't imagine why someone would want to go around and crap on someone's idea without any info to backup their indiscriminate negativity.
As for not being covered by warranty, did you look at the translated site I posted? Its clearly states "As of March 2009 there was the Toyota Yaris bemani edition every Toyota dealer from CHF 33'900 .00 to buy a limited. Diese Sonderedition wurde vom Importeur lanciert und unterstützt. This special edition has been launched by the importer and supported. Somit gelten die wie für jeden Toyota üblichen Garantie- und Gratisservice-Leistungen. Therefore applicable to any such standard Toyota warranty and free services." Which means over in Switzerland or wherever this is put out. It is covered under warranty. If you would like to see the site I'll post the link again.http://translate.google.com/translat...al%26prmd%3Div
Again I know it is covered by Toyota over in Europe but what about over here? It might work but I promise you unless you know the service manager their will an up hill battle with this, please don't call a nitrous oxide nos either. I have no problem with people wanting to make their xD's faster but I know nothing will come of this. From headers, to intakes, and forced induction company after company has turned us down because of lack of interest. If we can get a company to produce a kit similar to the one in Europe stateside then we could have a good kit that would be reasonably priced.
