That whole website looks a little shady to me. I've been around the scions since 2005 and never heard of them but yet they have stuff that was added in 2005. There's no info about the company and there's no email just a web form.

I believe this is this kit is the Treadstone kit or something near it but with a different name on it. Site does look a little shady.

I agree completely. Each one has their own to bring to the table.

"all that bad" shouldn't justify a purchase of that magnitude man. Honestly, there are a bunch of already qualified companies that have kits out that are proven to perform well. I have heard nothing but good things about the Dezod and Greddy kits myself and I can make an honest recommendation for TT once I get their kit on my car.

Do it right the first time so you don't have to pay for your mistakes later.

Dude your kidding right? That picture is a 100% rip off stolen from treadstone. I dont know if they will ship you that actual product or if they are even a known re-seller for treadstone but that is FOR SURE the treadstoneperformance.com picture and they photochoped their own name in there.

If treadstone is unaware of this or if they are not true re-sellers of their kit.... i smell a law suit.

Lastly, treadstones kit (THE EXACT KIT PICTURED) is 2999 and the one your looking at is 3500 so why are you even interested???? Very odd!

everything is ok. sciontcperformance is my partner on this kit, he posted that on the site years ago, but the kit is only available through us, "Treadstone" He is our main tech guy for the Tc kit.
