Thanks I-Club

Just want to say thanks to i-club for all the info and help while i was shopping for a suby 4 months ago. Well the deal dint go throught coz i wasnt happy with the APR offered by SOA. But this never stopped me from getting a car that is boosted ever since i test drove a wrx.

today i drive a 06 tC manual and i just ordered the TRD supercharger. It might not be a rex but il b boosted in essence.

once again thanks.

happy boosting.

Congrats on your tC purchase. TRD has a good reputation for putting together good mods for Toyota, as well as making good race cars from way back in the IMSA road racing days.

Great choice. I think those are some of the best looking affordable cars on the road. Not to mention the fact that you can supercharge it and still have your factory warranty. Not to shabby...

tC = great car- excellent pricing, shouldn't be too difficult to mod and get superior results. Scion has powerful marketing...to the point where i imagine myself driving a BB or xB! do post pics when you get a chance... too bad no suby, but love shared nonetheless- enjoy the ride!

You don't have to finance it through SOA. You can do it through anyone. Even e-loan.

well its feels the same as how you see the dyno graph, Smooth power! and its all top end. Without the SC it feels very good on low end with all the tq but no power to pull on 3/4th gear.

the parasitic lag isnt even noticeable at all when i drive it thru traffic.

Update.

I just finished reflashing the ECM by TRD.




Thanks for all the kind responses. Im sure if i have any boost questions, i would ask here
