or do you really believe that it free's up some extra ponies? its not worth the money, there's NO point to it. your gonna gain -/+ 0 whp.

I think a pullykit would be your best option for Cali. its not noticeable like any other mods for the car, and I say get an OEM style axleback, but you have a 5.0 so it already has a decent TRD axleback

thank god I live in NYC the most they _____ about here is dark tints and that's bc a cop got shot in the face by a van with dark tints.
Spacer has been installed. I notice a difference actually. Both in sound and off the start. And you know what? It's worth it!! For the better!!

idk how much i believe that. possibly change in sound or just your mind playing tricks on you thinking its actually doing something, samething goes for people with bolt ons and they think there car is fast.

what spacer did you go with?

It is felt off midrange the most. I could care less if you guys don't believe me. The crank pulley helps too. Thanks tho for this info to the rest!

-just go to the the "Carb" website, look up executive order(EO) numbers by manufactuers and then "ctrl+f" to find scion, and just look for all the mods for a tc. hope this helps a little.
