So you can race a s2k, but can't dyno the car? A dyno would be the first thing to do to make sure the car was safe to boost.

Taquito,

I called Bob yesterday and got a hold of Gary in the shipping dept. Bob hasn't had a chance to return my phone call yet, but I will call him again today.

That's what I'm wondering :? I just got a flashback of that radio interview... with the IROC camaro guy. "Is it sweet?"

Anyway, yah, dyno and specs would be nice. Otherwise, there's not much information being passed here. I'll check out those pics though

Dude, Victor deserves it more than anyone...he has the slowest scion in the world thanks to his almost $25,000 audio/visual competition setup.

I agree on the pics.....

We will be offering Production kits end of Jan 05. Im in the middle of having all the flanges made now and trying to design an IC that will actually fit w/o cutting the bumper support and still allow the use of the fog lights. There is alot of space there but things like the bumper support and foglights make it difficult to put a nice sized IC in the car so that our kit will be possible to go over 450whp with supporting mods. The fuel system has already been taken care of for 6-10psi. Any more than that will require and pigtail harness and an AEM EMS that we offer for the car too.

The kit will have a stainless & coated manifold, Tial WG, choice of HKS/Greddy S/TurboSmart BOV/Downpipe to factory exhaust/IC/PrecisionTurbo SC32/Aluminum Polished piping/Digital FMU/Fuel pump/oil feed and drain.....

Pricing will be comparable to 90% of the kits out there for other cars.....

This is not a sale pitch either.....but any of you guys that want to watch our project as its built you can go to our WebSite and follow along....

Yes the picture on our webpage is a rendering so far....but when we are done thats what we are looking for....

For anyone who has never heard of us before we have specialized in Custom Turbo kits for 5 years. And have designed many turbo kits for other companys in-house along with Downpipes and IC pipes.

Default Turbocharged tC

Wasn't there a rumor going around that Greddy was going to be releasing a bolt-on turbo kit for the tC soon.

I dont have a kit im so full of it and I led you on I am just full of BS and lies so just forget about me ever saying I had one. Just wait for more shops and companys to come out with their own and ask them about the gains and what not or go get ripped off by tc tunerz.
