Michigan people!
 

New here, just checking where my fellow Scion owners in Michigan are!

I drive a few cars, my xB just so happens to be my show / drag ( what?! ) car. Sittin on bags, turbo, etc.

Show some MI love. :icon_dj:

I wasn't expecting a lot, but damn this is killing me. :lol:

whatt uppppppppp

Did you buy the auto addictions RS1 xB?

This is Auto Addictions. :wink: Just getting on here to show some love, meet some people, and converse about cars!

just say what up to everyone around the Detroit area, showin love

Holy moley I didn't think there were any actives in MI. Royal Oak here, wonder if there are places I can get a tune should I consider that option sometime down the road...

Due to your age listed I did not think it was Mike that owned it anymore. Say hello to Mike for me from Charlie the white xB with the white leather and 52" sunroof. He may remember my car from a few years ago at Autorama.

Heyyyy I'm from hazel park. I was up at auto addictions abouth a moth ago buying my uego. Pretty soon ill be boosted too!

I just got done talking to him and he does remember you, he says hello back!

do you guys have a dyno? how much do you guys charge for dyno time? the guy tuning my car does 90% of it street tuning then finishes with a dyno tune. me and yamaha on here are both going to need some dyno time though.

Yo Detroit Peeps, I'm getting the tC ready to bring back since the weather has been nice. Ya in need of a full tune with the new motor. Should be a fun summer. I'll be out on woodward pretty much every weekend for sure. Hope to see some of you out there.

Just got my tC after my Mazda 3 caught fire.

Liking it so far :) I live right off woodward, so I'm sure I'll see some of you guys this summer?

We do have an in house dyno.

If you need info call the shop 248-852-9710

If a moderator / admin sees this and would like to discuss a sponsership / vendor account, by all means, PM me. But I did not intend on joining the site to advertise.

(Only reason I make note is because I'm a Moderator on XceedSpeed, so I know how it is.)

Sponsorships? I want sponsorships! Haha =P

I do too. :( lol!
Unfortunately we don't have anything like that going on right now..
But if something comes up, I'll be sure to throw it up on here.

What kind of dyno do you guys have and do you rent it out?

I have a tuner.....just no dyno.

i was told no renting out :(

i got a price on alternative auto performance, and livernois motorsports though!!

We have an older Clayton water brake dyno. I promise, which ever tuner you guys are using will have a headache with it. Our tuner is very reputable and does top of the line work.

Notice, the 1000whp Integra, his personal E85 13.2:1 compression, stroker, TURBO ( yeah I said it, high compression turbo) Crx. Not to mention the hundreds upon hundreds of cars he has tuned.

Although, in recent news, we have purchased 2 more dynos for our shop, so hopefully we'll have those up and running soon!

Hey Scion meet this saturday! 3/20
 

Hey everyone,

Come on out for a Scion meet and greet this Saturday. Go to www.sedetroit.darkbb.com Come visit our Scion Evolution Detroit Board and say hi! Tell them that Michael sent ya!

Michael

I drive a 2008 Scion xb. It is the Decepticon!

man where was everyone last year when i put together a meet? haha

Let's start organizing for this summer :pray:

we had a club meeting today to discuss things......

theres a club here too? holy crap! theres so much i didn't know about!!! i'd hate to go to a meet now, because my car is going to be so much different in a month!!! haha

SE detroit is still alive? I kinda got tired of the club thing. Now I just hang out on woodward on weekends.....Thats where its at if your into power modded cars.

So, uh, yeah... If anyone wants to throw a meet together for the first week in June sometime, I'm down. I'm stationed in CA, but my hometown in MI is Howard City (yeah, in the boonies). Let me know, and we can get something together.

Ben, a few people are trying to make it happen still. The new site is http://sedetroit.darkbb.com/index.htm but it is rather dead. You have to go to scion exposed this year it is being combined with the Chicago region to be held in June or July in Indianapolis probably.

Yooo, whats up fellow michiganders, Been awhile since I been on the scene but Im back. Whats up Ben, how you been? lol, THat exhaust you sold me a few years ago is still sounding good

Sup DJ, Hows the car running?


ogerdgonz can you post up details on scion exposed? I'd be down for that. Only reason I didnt go last year was my tC didnt have a engine in it

Ben this is the latest info I have

For now what is in stone is that our region has partnered with Chicago.

Things still up in the air, Venue- leaning more towards Indy, date not set month still up in the air June or July my guess sometime in July.
