look out for toyomoto scion turbo kit.

we are looking can you give us some info on it........

Must be one of those "oh its in the works turbo kits" that will never be made.....I really dont keep my hopes up for anyone that says they will make one until i see pictures and I know that it can be purchased meaning its out on the market

i hate when companies do that.

You can't judge yet. Hopefully this guy has a scion already but I believe he is in florida, is that right? Anyhoo, they got good ____ with the lexus peeps. Give it time

So why email him then. Why not just post what you know! Duh!!

So why email him then. Why not just post what you know! Duh!!

faSHO

Again this is why I dont give him or anyone for that matter until i have the product in front of me...and telling us to email him just tells me there isnt much strength in terms of possible production

utterly useless.

Wow, it seems to me that with all this _____ing, why would a company even try to bring one out?

I've seen people _____ and _____ about wanting products, and when someone says they are interested in developing them they get ____ on and decide its not worth their time. Or when they finally do come out with something, the people _____ing the most don’t even buy, making it even harder for new products to come out.

Why don’t you people email him and ask him what’s going on before you jump all over him, at least give him the chance to explain what’s going on.

Remember, these cars have been out only in CA and are just starting to hit the East Coast, and since our cars are not 100% compatible with the JDM FI kits you have to give these people time.

Toyomoto does some quality work, and remember you pay what you get for. So Jeff, please ignore all the kids on here _____ing, they probably wont be getting a Turbo kit because when it does comeout, they will be the first ones saying it costs to much. There are alot of enthusiasts patiently waiting, so dont let these people keep you away from our cars.

Yep I will be the first to admit that I am _____ing.....because when a guy says "email me for details"

That just gives the impression of whatever your full of it
A company that is serious will give you layouts, paramenters, costs, and a up to date status on progress with pictures....i.e. Greddy, Blitz, those sorts of companies.....and who would want to buy a product such as a turbo or supercharger from someone who doesnt even have a rep in the first place with previous products.....I would never and I bet alot of people wouldnt buy a product as exstensive as a turbo or supercharger from a person or company that doesnt have a good rep with smaller products like intakes and exshausts.....or if all they make is forced induction and they are new to the import scene then an extensive history in the domestic hot rods

So basically your talking out of your ___.

Go to any Lexus forum and do a search on Toyomoto and you will see that this will certainly not be their first FI kit for a Toyota Engine.

Last i checked, Greddy and Blitz dont have anything on their FI kits, only info i can find is that Its out in japan and it may be coming over here. No real hard proof their.

but they have strong reputation and long term heritage...im done arguing

There is a reason dinkjs saying that

SPY is probably the first bring out this turbo kit thing...
And it was 6 month ago or so... Still under construction

Quick showed us this F&F xB kit and I guess never made it (Thank god)

Weapon-R with prototype intake system and Leo is still work on something that can produce 2+HP over injen

ScionFX got this body kit w/o any price and availability

Someone mentioned about armrest and that was while ago... Nothing still

I don't care who is popular in what forum and who is well know company in the world. I will just take it as a joke until I saw the real picture and real pricing and real product in stock.

We are all tired of this...

Plus this is his first post and trying to sell stuff here, I guess you have to learn your reputation and respect way up in a community like this.

I'm on the same boat as you Tim but the company itself that he represents is cool by me, thaz y I sed the lexus peeps like em just like psychorage said.

And scionfx has the body kits in stock, i've seen em first hand and just call and you'll get hooked up

I serously trust in anything Toyomoto says... Ive seen ALOT of their work... they can be a bit pricy.. I once checked into a kit for my IS300 almost fell over but they do specialize in Toyota and Lexus turbos.... :twisted:

LOL. You crack me up. I guess with my 6 figure income I couldn't afford one huh? I'll _____ because he says to email him for details. Hell, he took the time to mention about it, then he should of said what he knows about it instead.

it is not a matter of having the money, it is a matter of spending the money. It is cool you got the money, a lot of us do, but it is spending the money that is the issue. So let me know when and where you get yours installed, i'll be next in line.

Well the day it's available will be when. But it must meet my critical criteria and must have proven results not to mention tested on actual daily driver cars to prove it won't detonate an engine. after 100 miles of hard driving. Considering I have a highly modded 98 GTP and 96 SHO, spending the money on this is nothing compared to what I've dumped into those two.

Coming from the Gen3 Camry crowd, I give toyomoto respect. Albeit I have seen this 'ish happen before, its rediculous to shoot em down.

sc300tt, all the power to ya, weirdscionce.com has your back! w00t!

by the way 2JZGTE or t/c 2JZGE or 1.5JZGTE?

If you went to a department store.........and on the clothing racks, instead of clothing.......there were a bunch of signs hanging there that said "please consult front desk for info and pricing on this shirt." Not only can you not see the shirt...you know diddly squat about it. Are you really gonna go ask about the shirt? Or do you want to see the thing and it's price sitting right in front of you...like every other normal person on the planet?

KiL

_____in .... ya it is ..... valid .... ya it is

if your gonna produce it .... produce it. if ya wanna find out if people want it say that. i'm tired of people comming out and saying "hey check it out" and then don't bring it. i ain't sh!ting on the guy .... just don't tease me! there's been too much of that .......

just my 2 cents

well, i am on the fence on this one. Yes, i would love to see everything in front of me, with a price. However, i understand companies wanting to judge their market before they dive into a venture such as this.

Remember, the R&D on a product such as this is costly. Companies want to make sure there is a market for a product before they produce it. toyomoto may feel very confident that they can produce a quality kit, however, they arent going to until they determine there is a pool of buyers that will pay for it.

So, asking people to email for details isnt a bad idea. It will give the company an idea of what type of market there is for their potential product.

Very valid point KignLou, however I have two points which arinvolvo nailed. Point one; that shirt is going to cost <$20, while a base t/c kit cost <$2,000. Point two; There is a solid market for a shirt while the Scion market has not been proven in the US.

I can absolutely understand your position and it is very valid. Coming from the SOHC 240SX crowd, I heard ateleast once every two months about a t/c kit for the ka24e and it never happened, sure it got frustrating but we always exploited every opportunity we got.

I remeber some lame ___ poster from when I was in high school, "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take."

The market isn't huge yet because we Scion owners are still a relatively exclusive group. And sure......a tc or sc is more costly to build than a shirt........but its also more costly to purchase.................so if I'm unwilling to say I'd be down to spend 20 bucks on this mystery shirt.........I'm definitly unwilling to say I'm down to spend over 3000 bucks on a mystery turbo. To tell you the truth.......I don't mind shooting out an email to get some things cleared up............but come on.........I'd like to hear at least something off the bat about this kit to even get me interested enough to write the email in the first place.

It is true companies normally go to forums and stuff posting ideas and hopes to see good feedbacks before they jump in and starts making a product. However I think it is useless for asking people these questions.

For example, how many of you want a turbo kit for your 108HP xB??
Do a poll just say "do you want a turbo kit?" You probably get 100 votes just in 1 day
If you do a poll and say "do you want a turbo kit for $3000?"You will get 1 vote after 24 hours... Not to mention a toyomoto kit will probably run you $6000 because they making Lexus kit for $10000.

People want stuff, but how many of you really buying it?
I just think at this time, Scion owner are not ready for anything
The car is new and the car is cheap and lots people still paying payments for their car

http://www.toyomoto.com/

they seem to have nice "previous" projects
and im glad theres another company that is
planning on making products for our cars.

i mean, just like tim said, lots of company
has claimed to "make one soon" but hey!
the more companies working on it, the faster
we can get products,,
:lol:

oh yea.. tim IS right, lots of beef going on.
and like not only do we demand this and that.
how many REAL buyers are there gonna be down
to fork out cash to buy these products?

Not to mention a toyomoto kit will probably run you $6000 because they making Lexus kit for $10000.


i wouldnt doubt it id be afraid to as how much the kit would be gunna have to sell a left nut

relax you guys.. Im from Miami and I went by Toyomoto. They have a burgundy Scion there that they are working on. Its pretty safe to say that this will not be the cheapest kit but prolly the nicest and most effective kit that will hit the market. Im not affiliated with them but have seen some of the cars they have done, and it's incredible...

ps. sorry for the long post

its BLACK CHERRY!! :evil:

just kidding


carry on! :oops:

i dont doubt that toyomoto will bring out a kit. They've done many cars which people think they wouldn't produce a kit. I'm sure they'll release one as they get it done and tested. They've been in the scene for a very long time and have a lot of credit with other owner clubs and enthusiasts. As for power output, thats on them depending on what kind of kit they want to market. To those that complain about power output, what do you want from a 1.5 L stock internal echo motor? If you are going to build the motor, then power isnt a problem. Also, regarding price tag, parts cost $ no matter what. A lot of the companies building these turbo kits aren't the ones that make the turbo itself, but have to buy it. If anything, they fab the manifold, pipes, and some companies make their own intercooler. Other than that, all the parts have to be bought. Theres civic owners out there dumping 3 grand for turbo kits and are gaining similar outputs and are happy. Can't expect the world for the cost of nothing know what i mean?

there is an integra type r runing 11psi....as u know they run high compression ratio to begin with....11.1 to compression...and here is a bone stock motor running 11psi....why cant we run 11psi with proper tuning...i see no problem in getting some real power outta these motors....only 10.5to1 compression....should be able to run 11psi once we can get another computer in there and tune the damn thing....as for the returnless fuel system....u can run a inline pump....u can open the gas tank up and find a way to raise the fuel pressure there....and use something like a apexi afc to lean it out at lower rpm....then u dont need a fpr...

no kidding =) but doing all that would make a turbo kit extremely expensive including all the labor involed =) that and running a stand alone ecu. Makes things pricey. Oh, technically afc doesnt change the fuel curve it changes the air it adjusts air %

you gota keep in mind that the typeR engine is alot stonger then this motor i believe the engine internals are more stout and can handle more stress then what these little motors can handle

I would think the scion could handle a 5-7 lb turbo and nothing more.

unless your reinforced the internals.
