That's just the part. THe installation looks very similar to the tC so far, so our price would be in the $500-$550 ballpark.

We'll see how it goes though :doh: It better have more juice for that price

Slightly better #s is what I'd hope for, since the air intake goes to the front bumper side vent.

Yeah its not a nice price. I feel like it will perform better than the tC did though. Hopefully it wont have the same issues but I feel like it might...

Or you could get the S/C and add a 9.5 psi NHT pulley and produce about 250 hp like some of the TC guys have. Pretty much a wash at that point, and I don't see why anyne would want to go higher HP than that with stock internals.

Unless your racing, if you are why are you doing it with a BOX, the xB hardly needs anything over 200hp anyhow. At that weight it's got more power to weight ratio than a stock V6 Mustang.

I just don't see the point of going crazy with power for the xB. If you want to do that you should have started with a more capable car.

Are you anticipating more power or hoping?

The little info I have seen is that TRD intended on a 200hp goal.

It's hope, not anticipation.

TRD released numbers are crank rated, so it sounds like the 40hp gain as we were expecting. I didn't know the xB kit was coming out until the released a part number a few months back. That part number received the dreaded D4 status (Stop Sale) and then a DD status (discontinued part number). This part number is a newer version and at a higher price point, so, hopefully, we'll see something improved over the tC's charger.

Just b/c you happen to go another route on your car does not mean the TRD S/C is "worthless." If you go the pulley route it is plenty capable to prouce a lot of power, more than you'll ever need. IT doesn't matter the Turbo produces more power cheaper. A lot of folks would rather just throw on the TRD, and keep the warranty and reliability 100% in tact.

Not worthless.

220+ HP would be perfect for the S/C. That seems to be the number most want

Yea... I would think most people know the reality: xB != race car. With that said, it's just livening up the daily driving experience and getting some power out of the box.

Grated, at this price point, it's a pretty steep modification, but it's worth it to most people.

For example, my dinosaur Supra (89 7M-GTE) is heavy and slow, but still fun to drive. Many people question my choice to purchase this dinosaur and fix it up-- it's always been a car I've wanted (love the styling) and gets the job done. Not everyone wants an overpowered car on the road- but 300 rwhp is more than enough in most cases.

I don't think the warranty will remain in tact after you install a supercharger. It is probably intended for off road use only.

My understanding is that part of the reason why it took TRD so long to bring the SC out for the xB was that it had to pass CA's smog test(strictest in the nation and if it passed CA, it'll pass anywhere else). The TRD supercharger maintains the warranty completely (parts and install if Scion does the install / or just the parts if you install yourself).

That's the real attraction to sticking with TRD (and paying that extra $$$) - street-legal and everything is inclusive in the warranty since it's all from Toyota.
