i can't seem to find a page with the scion turbo kit, but from the pic, it looks like the kit is using a turbonetics T3 trim turbo .60a/r hopefully, but IMO, way too large of a turbo for 1.5L that only turns 6,000RPMS. You wouldn't spool til around 4k and only have a power Range of 2,000 RPMS.

Best to go with a T25 or even a T20

or my personal fav, a GT28RS!

I just recieved a reply from psiracing saying that it is a t3 turbo. That scion on the site is his own personal scion that he's turboed. He has a dyno sheet that he will be putting up he said by the end of the week along with more photos. T3's WILL FIT!

i'm pretty sure that turbo pic over the scion is just a representation of a turbo kit. that turbo is huge for a freakin 1.5 like ours. i'd run a t20 just to get less lag.
