looks clean. i like the fact that they are using turbonetics products. i wonder what trim that is. is there a compressor map for that turbo? who made the core? any idea on pricing? dyno charts? spool time? fuel management?

I would be curious on a price and what they are using for fuel management as its not explained in their "kit" contents. So like any of the kits available, be prepared to buy injectors, cam con, fuel rail, pump, regulator and lots of braided line to convert to return. O, I already did all that.....

Its funny how everyone wants to know if the kits have been fully tested without blowing the motor? Its the morons that push the boost up crazy high that blow it up. The only ones on record that i know of that have grenaded their motor is ELPrototypes. And what they dont tell you is how much boost they were running and what the A/F was.

I will stick to my cast iron manifold...I will feel a lot safer knowing the chances of cracking my mani are slim to none.

Here is a e-mail I just got from PSIRacing.
Hey how are you, my name is Brendan alvarez from PSIRacing, I just wanted to thank you for posting the pics on "Scionlife". I really do appreciate the support, I hope to be on there in the next couple days answering some of the questions those Scion owners have, just to to give you some insight on the kit, the XB that is on the sight is my own personal daily driver, it made @ 5PSI 144.86 to the wheels and 135.76 ft of torque, to date I have put about 6000 miles with no problems, the only problem has been the clutch, but as far as anything its been great and a lot of fun. Any questions you might have please feel free to ask.

Thanks again,
Brendan Alvarez
