CONCLUSION
Spending less than three hours of installation time, the Scion's 1.5-liter engine has respectively come alive with 6.8 extra horses and a 4.5 lb-ft torque increase over stock. Although the horsepower figures are not mind-boggling for hardcore enthusiasts, keep in mind the Scion is not your typical quarter-mile monster, but rather a fun, economical car that combines superb handling and the enjoyment of driving. :wink:

interesting


1 hp cost $261.00 :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

$1100+ for 7hp, I'd rather spend $3000 & get 200hp more (4E-FTE Swap w/ mods).

Just my 3 Cents shy of a half a Dime.

at full retail price. :shock:

you could get all that for about half the price. :D
