now that quaife has their atb diff for the tC, I don't know how someone could justify running that much boost without one.

well, traction is not an issue when all you do is highway racing and the oh look at me I got bigger cojones bragging rights. at least that's what I used to do back then, not anymore. I live in OK now :-( ;-)

Its good to see a bone stock tC motor can handle the power. Why does PR have a lot of silly HP cars out there?

Do you have any better resolution pictures of that first one (where the tC is doing a burnout)?

This question is all relivent to how much boost you are running and how good your tune is. At 10lbs on a good kit and good tune, I'd say you could drive it until the wheels fell off and not miss a beat.

The Scion Speed car did make impressive numbers, but it was blatantly smoking in the last vid they posted of the 420hp dyno pull. I know they said it was pushing coolant, but I have my own opinion.

Scion Speed = BOOM! My top secret sources say they swapped the motor after.

Is this a kit that will go in production? Can someone sum up the article? What are they talking about in it?

Cause our roads suck and we have to have crazy hp cars to be able to cruise around.


And about a better picture I will try to take it. (The one about the burnout)

Just to let you guys know on an update:

The car on it's first track run took on a new stock corvette and beat it.
tC - 12.9
corvette - 13.1



Some weeks after that race the car broke I don't remember why, and last I heard the engine was rebuilt to be bulletproof so expect to see new numbers before the end of the year.

By the way I know this info because a friend of mine has a S2000 with 540 WHP and his turbo kit was done by the same two shops that made the tC.
