Default tC Aftermarket Parts?

Do any sites have tC aftermarket parts for sale yet?

I haven't been able to find ANYTHING! (Except for the dealer options) It may be a couple of months.

Damn dude...the car just came out a week ago. It's going to take some time for parts to start coming out. It's not like the xA and xB where they were out in Japan before their release here.

Yes, I know but all of the aftermarket companies knew about the tC for a long time.

Yeah, they knew about the tC like we did but did not have any specifics to "build" aftermarket items. I am sure they will have some in the near future as it means MONEY!!!

I happen to know of a turbo kit in development from a very reputable aftermarket shop. Look for it in a few months. Most likely a T4 hybrid of some kind, with a cast manifold. Just need to see how amicable the ECU and fuel system are to such mods. Hopefully, since they seem to be designed with at least a supercharger in mind, it'll be able to hold 12-14 lbs of boost. The relatively low compression should help too. My guess is you'll see a kit in the $3k range soon, should be good for a solid 300+ hp.

T4? nah, i still will somke T4 turbo. What you pay is what you get, $3k is not going to out run my project. specially $3k system with ECU? NO WAY. My ECU alone is about 3k, and i will running at 8lbs only. Remember my post Stage 2 Class, 3k system is not even stage 1.

300HP more like around 260WHP, my setup with 8lbs boost is already 350WHP.

Say what? You don't know which T4 and what parts are what. Most likely a T04E, maybe a 50 trim with a .48 AR or maybe a little bigger, seeing as how the larger displacement engine in the tC could probably spool it nicely. Not knowing what the stock injectors are pump are rated at will be an initial hinderance, but hopefully, like I said before, Toyota accounted for the supercharger and did it right from the factory.

You don't know any more than anyone else on the ECU right now. You never know, you may be able to clamp the MAS at "x" boost, slap on an AFC for fuel control, and be done. Stages mean nothing. Shoot me some specs and real info, then we'll talk.

Sure if you want SPEC.
Garrett Turbo BallBarring GT2540 (special edition not sold in retail or anywhere)
Autronic ECU (just out the market newest one)
Custom made all egual lenght Turbo ready header with custom make catbacksystem (3") also custom made exhust (3")
All Alum. light weight icey piping (as always custom made)

Fuel pump, wastegate, boost controler, blow valve etc.. those are the little thing.

Is this what you want to know? or if you want to go more detail, i get my engineer for every detail data.

I know what T4 is, but NO WAY $3k system with T4 turbo can be any good, specially with stock ECU.


Wanna talk now?

Hahaha, So you're spending a ton of money for what? A ball-bearing turbo that does ... well, no one knows what it does because it's a "special edition not sold in retail or anywhere". As opposed to the hundreds or DSMs, WRXs, SRT4s, etc, all running 300-500 hp on the T04E's that I was just describing. I'm talking about proven equipment that will work, you're talking about, well, no one knows what you're talking about.

Equal length turbo header. No kidding. You mean you can't just slap a turbo on the downpipe and run 10's? The kit I was referring to will have a cast manifold - just like stock - that's 10x cheaper than your header, but works every bit as well. The intercooler will likely be a Spearco derivitive. Piping will have to be custom made, but that's not an issue. Wastegate will be Turbonetics or Tial - probably a 35-38mm variety to hold the type of boost we're talking about here. BOV doesn't really matter, probably a Greddy, HKS, or Tial. Fuel pump, most likely a Walboro something or other, depending on if a return line or fuel pressure regulator is needed. No one knows what's available for computers for these yet, so I don't know what the kit will include. Like I said before, most likely an AFC or E-manage to start - you don't have the slightest CLUE what the stock ECU can do. No one does.

At the type of performance we're talking here, 250-300hp to the wheels, there's not a reason in hell you should pay more than $3000-3500 (depending on the intercooler). Any more than that and you're wasting your money. Lets do some math here. Turbo - $700. IC - $1000 with piping. Manifold - $400-500. Wastegate - $250. BOV - $200. Boost controller - $50. Fuel pump (and maybe injectors) - $400. AFC - $250. Let's see - I come up with $3350.

I'll keep talking until you shut up. Learn to spell, then learn what a turbo does, make a logical arguement, then you won't seem like so much of an uneduacted ___.

Stop talking about turbos. It makes my head hurt. Anyone that refers to turbos as stages has been playing way too much Gran Turismo.


GT2540 special edition? Yah, you keep listening to whoever is feeding you that B.S. Plus, what GT25 is going to make 350fwhp? None at a reasonable boost levels.

And I doubt anyone is putting a T4 on a tC. A t3/t4 hybrid would be better matched to the car.

What i say special edition is GT made that for only few tunner, base is still like GT2538, but it can handle more power for the GT2540. You can check on Garrett turbo GT25 series turbo.

As i say early, i'm only running at 8lbs, because we don't know how VVTI 2.4 can handle. which is already 350WHP. If need engine work will be done, piston rod etc...
I'm not engineer ofcuse i can't speak as technically. I do respect To4e or any other turbo, but no way $3000 street system is going outrun race system.
All motor header and Turbo system header is different,

The system setup i'm putting in is for 600WHP+ level, which if i boost 20lbs more anywhere from 200-250whp+ more.

Any one who in NEW YORK area, i belive you guy hear TNT before. Person who will tuning my car will be TNT staff.

If you think that $3k system can win, i'll see you at race track. And you think 10second car is that easy to make for $3k?, come on, let me see how you build 10s car with $3k.

www.nhra.com I'll be running at English Town soon once the project is done.

GT25 list on Garrett turbo is 2537/2538 model, the one with 2540 can handle bigger power then stander gt2537 or 38.

Don't belive me? call Garrett turbo.

Eric Del Rosario's Exedy Integra running the opening of NHRA won the 3rd place. Support by my tunner (9.52s at 151mhp)

here is link, i'm not good to explain technical data but i can show you. I'll show you when my tC running at the track.

I'm sorry - I meant T3/T4 hybrid - thought that was implied.

As for the other kid - blow all your money on whatever creams your twinkie. Logic, sense, and reason be damned,

Call garret? I do that daily. We are a garret dealer and attend garret tech meetings quite often.

No way a gt2540 is making 350fwhp on 8psi. No way it will make 600hp. There is no way your running 10s.

Once you get the stuff on the car, and have some real numbers, then you can start talking. Until then, stop making up BS claims and making yourself look stupid.

I think that was the first turbo forum I actually read all the way through. Very exciting right down to the last post.
