New Product Announcement: The WOT Box - Discounted Group Buy
Hello everyone! I would like to introduce our company, N2MB Racing. We make electronics for performance cars. Our base is in the SRT-4 community and you can check us out over on SRTForums here: N2MB Racing - SRT Forums - SRT4, SRT6, SRT8, SRT10 & Dodge Forum
We have decided to branch out into new vehicle communities and bring our popular WOT Box product to the Scion tC and other Scion cars.
The WOT Box adds two major features to any car. They are No-lift shifting and 2-step launch control.
The No-Lift Shift feature makes no-lift shifting easy by cutting your engine's ignition for a very short period while you no-lift shift. No-lift shifting is keeping the gas down through the shifft. The ignition cut allows the synchros in your transmission to mesh easily, reducing the chance of missing a gear and damaging your transmission. Keeping your foot down through the shift also allows you to hold boost through the shift, thereby significantly improving your E.T.
The major benefits are:
-Lower ETs
-Reduced chance of missing a gear
-More consistent, effortless shifts
-Reduced wear on the transmission
-Reduced chance of major transmission damage
The 2-Step Launch Control modulates the ignition by dropping power to individual ignition coils to hold the RPM you want to launch at. The turbo will spool up while you do this. You can use this feature for a more consistent and more powerful launch in boost! If your car is naturally aspirated, it will still help you have more consistent launches.
You can read more about the WOT Box on our website at:
http://www.n2mb.com/wotbox
You can view Scion tC specific installation instructions here:

Thank you to NVMyTc for doing the test installation and the write-up.
As an introduction, we will be running a group buy for ScionLife Forum Members for the rest of October. You will receive a $10 discount and the privilege of being one of the first tC's with no-lift shifting and launch control. To check out at the group buy price, visit this website:

Thanks, and let me know if you have any questions.

It will help you get your launch a little more consistant, but most of all it will cut down your time between shifting. You also stay in boost while shifting threw the gears
I use to think I could shift fast, but I cant even compare it to a WOT shift.
I have a good amount of people going to the track today with me, I should be able to get some good videos

The track conditions were pretty bad and it was 97*, not the best weather for racing
I had the 2-step set at 2400 RPMS, which worked amazing on the streets but was much too low for the track.
First run was 9.596, 2-step set at 2400 RPMS, bogged on the launch bad, turbo took forever to spool
Second run was 9.272 (my 2nd fastest ever), 2-step set at 2800 RPMS, Tires spun a little but was a pretty mice launch
Third run was 9.318, 2-step set at 2800 RPMS, car hooked well w/o any tire spin but caused the engine to bog a bit
Fourth run was 9.289, 2 step set at 3000 RPMS, Car hooked pretty damn good, spun a bit but was a good run
Fifth run 9.436, 2-step set at 3200 RPMS, had pretty bad wheel hop and was slow into third gear
Right when the weather started to cool down, a guy got in a real bad crash and the races were stopped for 45 minutes while it was cleaned up, so I just watched he rest of the night. WHen I ran my personal best (9.250) I did it in 70* weather. I came damn close to breaking my personal best in 97* weather. I also didnt miss one shift tongiht, when usually i mis a shift about 2-3 runs on a track night.
My average time usually is around 9.5, so it was surprising to see how consistant I was running tonight. 3 of the 5 runs my 60' foot were 2.1XX
let me jut say, I LOVE MY WOT BOX lol

i can vouch for this product as being very effective and definetily a must upgrade for those of you who are avid track runners, it helps ease the shifting when your trying to make good times on the 1/4 plus saving the damage done to your transmission i would highly recommend it for the price,
p.s. the car i drove was not a tc but an 11.5 srt-4 that had the WOT box on it, and to the guys at n2mb you know the girl whos car i'm talking about

Will this work just as good for NA cars or is it specifically for F/I. Thanks. It sounds different thats for sure, it actually sounds like it would do more damage to your car, but then again im no tech. Keep us updated.
