Yeah I figured out my roof problem was as simple as lube... I threw some wd40 on there and boom it now opens and closes with no problems.. Im gonna through some grease on their for a more permanent solution... I also figured out the problem with my clutch pedal which I dont think I mentioned before... I had about 2 inches of play with the clutch pedal up top, not near the bottom... I figured out it was a bushing by dissassembling it and seeing a bushing almost chewed completely to death. So I just ordered a new bushing through toyota for 8.49, arriving thursday. The clicking I was getting when turning the wheel back and forth was nothing more then my brakes/calipers.. I took off the wheels and found out it was as simple as taking it apart and putting it back together.. Scions are funny sometimes. We get the strangest clicking/rattling noises in the world it seems... I also patched my tire, so thats all taken care of... So many problems lol.. Its getting there... I gotta figure out why my CEL keeps coming on even though I have a CEL eliminator and I believe the code was related to exhaust. Maybe I have a bad oxygen sensor.. All in all im trying to fix it all up so I can do some meet ups with you guys and have a little fun!

Hell no we wont.lol sounds like a plan. I had my tc at 380whp before the tragic end of it so i was neve able to break 4s like i wanted to. Youll love the boost though. Nothing like it in these tc's.
