^LOL let us know the outcome bro.

We should bring a thread back from the dead every-so often for the heck of it. This is pretty funny.

I am curious about this new tc, infact I would possibly like to get one

1.) How do you think it will handle?
2.) Any guess' at 0-60 times? (can it do sub 8 seconds)
3.) Will the supercharger be a "mopar" type of accessory?
4.) Do you think the supercharger will be compatable with the automatic version of this car?

I really like the looks and bang for the buck of this car. How small is it exactly? About the size of an RSX?

Thanks guys!
the 7.3- 7.5 0-60 sounds about right. it is faster than a RX-8! garanteed.
its not gonna take turns as good as the wrx but still its very good- just get some lowering springs and turning improves big time!

it has a supercharger that puts out 200whp (by toyota) but majority of the owners get about 210-215 whp with the s/c. 0-60 get down to like 6.4- 6.8(driver dependent)
and yes, the s/c is compatible with auto tranny.

it truly IS a bang for the buck. especially the 2008 model- comes with standard side airbags, and a rear mounted subwoofer.

their are some rattle problems (depending on the driving conditions- toyota takes care of them pretty good so no worries)

now for the price of a supercharger, you can get a greddy turbo kit that gives you 260- 280 WHEEL hp and 265-285 WHEEL tq at 9psi boost. (manual tranny)

it may not seem much but these no.s are what hit the pavement! my turbo tC gives 260hp/ 275tq and is decently faster than an EVO! STi's are no competition. I've taken an 05 M5 and kept up with a 500hp/500tq SRT-8 charger.

honest to god im not making this up!

... and even after the turbo its a very VERY manageable daily driver.

Forums should have a post prevention thing. Where it prevents you from posting in a thread, until you manually load each and every page.
