Boosted Get2Gether IDEA!
Boosted Get2Gether IDEA!
Rob (B_Real) and I had an idea for everyone that is boosted and in FL.
"Ya he is.. we need more people like him so they can help pioneer new parts and more aftermarket support. I feel that we should get a bunch of boosted/built TCs together and get a magazine to cover it.. it'll show manufactures we're more than just bolt-on tuners.. we want the real ____.
Did you know an equal length turbo manifold for a Honda can be as low as $550? And we're talking super good quality welds with v-band for wastegate. I can't wait until Scions can get that level of support.. $500 manifolds, $400 intake manifolds, etc."
that is what rob said to me.. and this is my idea that i replied!
" damn that would be amazing.. everything is retardedly priced for us because there is no mainstream production really.. Ya somehow we should get all the FL boosted TC's we know of and come together Take professional photos of the cars w/ mod lists and write an article how we think scions should be taken seriously to the next level in the tuning world. I bet someone would bite on it"
i think it would be worth a shot, we could send the article in to multiple mag's such as import tuner, super street, s3, w.e else there is.. and it would actually be a really cool experience.. if we all came together and made a date and all met in the middle.. (prob orlando area), that would be such a sick meet + cruise.. what do you think?

Yeah.. and it doesn't have to be where all the cars look super crazy clean.. just want to surprise readers with a bunch of turbo'd and/or built engines showin that we mean business. We can make Scion 300whp club shirts and Scion 400+whp club shirts too..
We're pretty diverse as it is - there are people with TT kits, T'netics kits, Dezod, custom, PTuning, etc.. I think it would be a pretty interesting article/spread.

Florida boosted scion's! This is really a great idea.. and i had to call chad to get more details!
Theres alot of people who are out there looking to build stuff for our cars but need to see a want or demand!
Lets show everyone a tc is not a girls car.. And take the sport compact world and shake it up!

lol my favorite moment with the " girl car" thing had to kid's in a old's role up next to me and yel out " chick car" and punched it. lol i droped into 3rd gear and flew past them and when we get up to the next light. they go " hey man what you got in that thing" i go 4 cyl!
To help sleep at night, check the sales stats.... it's a 50/50 purchase rate. Besides, it's only a girls car if you ride shotgun with your girl driving. Pull up to a group of chicks and they'll hop in the car they like the most first! not the rusted 1980 camaro that runs 10's.
