News and updates from Turbotoyotas
Figured it was a good time to start updating again
yes we are still here,
Posted this in another thread, will start here and update accordingly
Things are going good on my end, and soon you will see me updating on whats going on and promoting the products again.
Have some new things in store for the Scion community that is way ahead of what any other shop is doing. ( the perks of being small and focused, plus the people and stuff I have access too comes in handy)
Some small things though:
1. The leadtime issue is no longer one as those who work for me are now accountable for there work and if its not done in time, they dont get paid and you start getting money in return. Think of every kit order as a contract...I dont meet it, therefore I am fined for it.
2. I will be a low volume high quality producer. We produced over 100 kits in 6 months this year. I am now shooting for 3-4 a month(sales wise)....big difference.
3. The product is better than it ever was, and I will be introducing higher quality materials and processes here shortly. (finally got to implement some things that I wanted too months ago)
4. Kit wise....the SIMPLE for the TC is on the chopping block as I want to focus more on the 2.1 kits for those who are serious about there setups. There are plenty of others out there to choose from. I want to focus and turn TT into more of a specialized shop. The SIMPLE for the 2nd gen xB, Corolla, and Matrix will still be available.
New kits:
xD
1st gen xB
TC (hardcore T4 stuff)
5. Custom work is no longer avail, unless you get me your car. No exceptions. Just TT parts. (no replacement parts for other manufacturers etc)
Just a few things for you guys to read.
Regards-
Todd

Awesome, will you have parts stocked or made to order
2- 2.1 kits (choice of turbo, 1 38 flanged, 1 44 flanged)
2-SIMPLE for the TC (probably last 2)
2- SIMPLE for the 2nd gen xB
2- new xD kits
After that it just depends on demand. My goal is 3-4 kits a month, which from a production standpoint is very easily met. Regarless if I am not selling that many, I will make various parts to have on the shelf.

Well, I sent you a PM asking about the V2.1 Manifold, 3" Downpipe/3" S-Pipe combo. How long would it take for me to get them if I ordered them?
#6
wait wait wait, no custom parts nemore?
aw man.
aw man.
What I mean is:
No replacment manifolds for other manuf. no intercooler setup stuff etc....the stuff that killed me before. Just sticking to what we do best.
But if there are those that want one off stuff (and there is as there are 3 random setups being worked on as I type) you just have to get me your car.
Plus AEN---your really close

It won't be that soon. It will be in the Spring when the snow stops. Are you gonna be like ZPI by then? Not to sound like a dick, but we never see you around much anymore, etc. I really want to buy the stuff from you and have speedy shipping when I do when the time comes, not be one of those distraught people posting up about how I never got my parts and my money is gone, etc.
