Yeah, well that is your opinion. I will be running full turbo setup here pretty soon. As for the ricey part, I dont think so buddy.

With this logic, everything that people do, unless they build it themselves and install, is not really theirs. This is one of the stupidest comments I have ever heard.

Listen up bro, I know this is a public thread and you can post whatever you want, but don't start bashing on something just because you don't like it. Scion's motto is "What Moves You" not what moves TCpete.
When you put as much hard work and money as we have, then you can come and say something if you have built something better than I have.

What happens when you enter a car show, how will the judge actually judge whos car is better? Let the two of you go at it at a boxing match, now thats would be a true win, haha. Or sneek a turbo in when the other twin isnt looking.
