Treadstone turbo kit installed with pics......
We just installed a Tread Stone (stage1) turbo kit on our first Tc. The kit looks nice and went pretty well. There was a bit more trimming on the front bumper than I would have liked, but over all the install went well.
When we dyno tuned the car, I was impressed about the increse in power over stock. We made 249.4 WHP with 7 psi. on the dyno dynamics dyno. This was the first venture into the Scion world for us after building many 350Z's G35's, Supra's, etc. We will be doing a Zero Point kit on another Tc here shortly.
Here are some pics......enjoy...............

Sory everyone for the (breaking news) tag, it was an accident (first post). This car belongs to a customer, Blake M. (Ambition760) The kit was nice and everything went smooth. I took this Scion install on just to see if it was a market that I wanted to get into. I am a former partner in a company called VRT that builds high HP and performance 800+ whp G35's and 350Z's so the Scion is a change of pace for us.

Yes Yes.....the car is running well. I did not beleive the numbers my car was putting out at 7lbs. of boost because according to the Treadstone charts @ 7lbs they dyno'd it @ 220whp roughly. Pretty crazy. Scott and Mark did a flawless job on the install and better yet the tune that was done makes my car run sooo solid. I would strongly recommend this kit to anybody out there considering going forced induction. I find it pretty funny that the first day I have my car out someone already from the forums has taken a picture of my car just parked there.

car is running solid like it was when I picked it up. Just need to sell my current exhaust system to buy a turbo exhaust. It is up for sale as of now. As far as my videos I'm going to get some footage here on Tuesday afternoon and have it uploaded later that night. If you know of anybody that needs an exhaust let me know. I have the Magnaflow cat-back system right now.
