I have been searching post after post and still can't find any real numbers for 0-60 times on a SC or Turbo'd xB.

So the xB has a standard 0-60 of 9.8 sec, so what is the times for a Greddy SC or Turbo; the supercharger makes the xB 129bhp not sure about the horse power on their Turbo I have seen some sites claiming 150bhp but not sure if its true.

Any information would be great.

My guess, on the supercharger, would be around 6.9-7.2. Based on the power to weight of other cars. I think the killer would be having to go into 3rd before hitting 60. Just an good guess. I'll find out soon enough, as I just ordered mine. :P

i can hit 32 in first, and 63 in second... i know how fast i can go in every gear for some reason... maybe i just beat on my car :lalala:

Wow... I've never tried to bang 60 in second. I assumed it neeed a 2-3 shift prior (like many non-sport cars).

Usually most sports cars have a close ratio tranny. anyways, I'll try to hit 60 in 2nd tonight to verify...

I find it hard to believe that you can hit 63 in 2nd gear unless you have diff gearin from the rest of us because i try to hit 60 in 2nd gear everyday and i have no luck because the car would redline first......... so i really doubt you can hit 63 in 2nd so basically prove me wrong................VIDEO.............

i second that i can get to like 58 b4 i redline

I;ll have to check when I shift into 3rd but I think it is around 60 when I beat on it to redline, but usually shift before that because start to lose power right at the top.

i checked today i can def hit 60, at redline, not 63 that was a mistake on my part... im not sure if it has anything to do with it, but im on 19's and im sure my speedo is tweaked a bit from them....

I checked twice today. I got to 57, but I have a slightly larger tire diameter than stock (215/50R16 versus 185/60R15). I checked Miata.net and DiscountTireDirect.com. Both say I'll be at 58-59mph when my speedo reads 57 (which is redline in second for my 2005). Unless your tires/rim combo is a much larger diameter than stock (like 225/45R18) you'll have to hit 3rd to make it. But it'ts really darn close... :doh:

this thread got so off topic...

1- the stock speedo is off by several MPH.
2- alot of cars sold in the US hits 60~ right at the 2-3 shift. Why? because the American market is so stuck on the old 0-60 spec. Some vehicle makers have been known to change 2nd gear to make sure the car hits 60 during second just so it looks good on paper even though it may hurt the overall gearing of the car.

Lets get this back on topic or make another thread about it if you guys wish.


From what Ive seen of quarter mile times from SCed xBs I would estimate that 6.5-7 seconds would be a fair estimate.

the vios in thailand is using the same engine as the scion XA.
143 horsepower at 6400rpm and 196Nm of torque at 4400rpm. The gearbox is a 5-speed close ratio gearbox for maximum acceleration. This takes the car from 0-100km/h in 8.1 seconds. The car does the 400meter sprint at 15.9 seconds.

so i doubt it is possible to hit 0-60mph in 7.0 sec unless its running high boost. even so i think it maybe too optimistic.

given that i am on 19s, my speedo is off a couple mph, so i am hitting 60 right at the 2-3 shift. this puts my 0-60 roughly at a 6.8-7 flat depending on the launch. not to shabby, makes it a lot of fun to drive... http://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=172024&highlight=

was it timed with a device like the rsm? or handtime?

If somebody spend 3000 to 4000 in a supercharger or turbo to run 15' or 14' in a 1/4 mile you need to burn it!!!!!!!!!!!
