Default Stage 0.5 (special Edition)

My mechanic took off my GT3076R to send it in for warranty because it had bad seals.

anyways this is what he did for me so i can drive my car for the time.

This is a special Edition Turbo Scion tC,

it is attached with 3 layers of sheet metal to keep the exhaust gases from causing fires, also the intake is plugged back into the intercooler pipe with rubber silicone hoses.

thats my special turbo tC

It even drives better than with the turbo, alot smoother, ...

i just havent floored it and i dont plan too. but it drives really quiet.

think of it like a stock tC with no modifications at all.

also the AFR's are at 14's and 15's in normal everday driving.

nope thats the only bad part...

and you know what sucks even more? "i get tried daily by people on the streets now that i dont have my turbo, but when i had it , i usually had to hunt these poeple down.

no turbo = makes you not want to drive the darn thing.

So only the Exhaust side of the turbo is left intact, with the turbine wheel removed?
