this is the response I got back from them:

Thanks for your interest in our products. We are currently working on a turbo kit for the Scion TC and as you may know it was displayed at the SEMA show. We are still working on the kit and have not yet decided if it will be available for sale. Pricing and ETA is not available at this moment
either. Please keep in touch with your favorite Authorized GReddy Dealer for updates.

We just gotta tell them that they've already got 2 competitors (ZPI & ScionSpeed) with turbo kits already released and everyday that they delay the release of their's is a potentially lost customer.

As some of you may or may not know, My company, CreativeCompacts.Com has a company Mazda RX8. The RX8 is sponsored by Greddy performance. Not that it makes it any more special, but it does allow me direct contact with some people at Greddy. When I spoke to one of the main guys at Greddy in early April, he mentioned to me that they had developed the Turbo kit for the Scion, however Scion Corp had been using their car for promotional purposes since SEMA and they haven't had the car back to do any testing. He was hoping to have the car back in April so they could finish working on the kit. However he was not too optimistic in his conversation with me that the kit would released. Plus you have to remember all Greddy kits are made to be street legal in most cases so they will probably not put down the power we are seeing from ZPI and Scionspeed.

Thanks

I mean, if they are not going to release it, why spend all the time and money to develop a prototype? It may take a while but I think it might eventually come out. Good thing about their kits are that many of them are street legal. Not many of us can afford a fail smog.

Allow me to answer that question with another...

Why do most car manufactuers spend millions producing a concept when most likely they'll never make it a production model?

Silly ain't it?

Search on turbo-kits.com, they have bolt on turbo-kits for xA and xB. I guess tC is not too far away. I sent them an email asking if any news on tC, but I won't get an reply from them right away because they've gone racing until May 10th.
