Now that the S/C is finally coming out for the A/T you guys are saying it wont really make a difference. I think i got the wrong car LOL ><
of course it'll make a difference, im expecting the auto tC to dyno around 175whp.
thats a 45whp jump from its base WHP

i think stage 1 might be pushing it..i dont know of any autos with even the stage 0 yet. zpi said that the stage 0 is perfect for autos but since nobody i know of has it for the auto, its all speculation. but like i said, it may be pushing it..especially if its 300+ whp and tq

why do you all keep saying the kit is out for the a/t? it isn't.
mcgeorge has had the part number on their site because they are too lazy to remove it.

And I spoke to TRD this week. They also say it's still not out.

I just ordered my Fit Kit, The company didn't say anything about a "Pre-Order" or anything. If the link below doesn't work go to
http://www.scioncrazy.com/trd_scion_tc_supercharger.htm and click on "Order Scion Parts Online"


http://www.trademotion.com/partlocat...catalogid=3477

I'm not sure if I just got scammed or if I'm going to have to wait like the rest of us... But I will let you know when I receive my package Seems to come from a Reputable company, "Champion Toyota" is a Scion Dealership.

some of you guys can be so rediculous, manual vs. auto baby! autos can beat maunuals, manuals can beat autos! give it a break..it can be so tiring some times reading these threads and everybody getting so territorial about their tranny. i have an auto. i would like the sc too. but i dont race. if i ever got pulled over for racing, my insurance would bend me over and stick it in dry. i just enjoy driving the car, just accelerating on an on ramp, or passing on the highway, or the occasional wot to mess with the ricers and wannabes'.
i wouldnt want to even think about turbo, that is so much wear and tear in the long run, but the sc was designed keeping torque gains lo, to go easy on the tran. thats great for everyday driving. i would get the sc, suspension, and other stuff to make my car feel good when i drive, but you would never see me going to the track or anything, because in the racing catagory, our cars fail. i knew this going into the auto back when i ordered it. would i go back and switch to a manual? no. just cuz i couldnt stand reverse, lol. but yea, manuals are fun. my svt contour would woop up on most of the cars around, i miss it, but fords were and are a peice. it just depends on the car. i would never buy a performance sport car in an auto. thats just dumb. but when it comes to "sporty" cars that arent performance, but "torquey", yea...i got an auto. plus it would be fair because my fiance cant drive manual. its just a cool car, and the best price in its class by far. just my .02, but i hate to see people getting in biccerments over silly things, like what tranny is faster...
we all bought our tranny for which best suits us...

do you have a lot of mods in your car? i used to have a V6 accord and my friend at work is so proud of his 325i though i always beated him, now he keeps saying lets race, now with your post im wondering how can my tC beat a 325i with 215hp/185 tq (he keeps saying that) or do i have to do some mods? no SC or Turbo for me...

if you dont really care about warranty and that stuff, i'd say stage 0. costs about the same mayb even less but you get much more power from the stage 0 than the s/c. if you are conerned with warranty and stuff get the s/c.

no mods on my car, just make sure you can launch or you will lose. It WILL be a close race, and make sure the 325i is auto too!
