Being stuck down here in FL becasuse of icliment weather, we've been designing more powerful applications and other misc upgrades througout the car.

We need some assistance now to speed things up. I need 1, possibly 2, test cars for our turbo kits. We MAY be selling the Stage 1 on my car (I can't drive it over the winter due to New England weather) to keep this kit under extreme testing to make sure everything is working well. If I get enough ways to dyno tune repeatedly, with occasional trips south, I'll be keeping the Stage 1. If that's the case, our candidate of choice will be helping us with our development of our stage 2 application. We already have the turbo and fuel injectors plotted out for it. We need someone to physically put everything in the car to see what works and what doesnt.

Now at the same time, by snapping my passenger axle, we're already setting up custom built race axles for drag use. It's good for everything else, but drag puts the most load on the axle so if it can handle that, it'll handle everything else.

The next upgrade path is the motor. We've been in contact with two companies on setting up full upgrades. Whether it be selling the kits, or selling fairly affordable longblocks/shortblocks, something will work out. The shortblocks are low compression, with forged rods, sleeves, hopefully an upgraded oil pump, and with head studs. Our head packages sport turbo cams, new valves, retainers, and springs. You'd have the option to buy the parts (any of the parts), all the parts, or a full package.

The next upgrade is the electronics. We have a close contact with a large ECU management company (leaving it vague for a reason). We're working on full stand-alone ECUs for the tC, and are providing harnesses as well for plug and play. I'll leave most other details out, because it's still in the development stages.

Ok needless to say... I need people to "APPLY" via Email (Joe@Dezod.com) for a development position with our company. Money will be involved, this won't be free if you do it, but you do get everything at absolute cost, and the joy of having the first of its kind. You can keep the kit once development is done, hence why upfront costs are to be expected. Please only apply of you are very serious about doing this. It takes a lot of time, mechanical know-how, patience, and money. We'll be working close with you on making the kits the best there is to offer. In your application, state why you think we should choose you, a rough idea of your import/mechanical history, info about your car, etc. Use your judgement, make it good! After I sift through the applicants, final cuts will receive a more formal application so we may better decide who the right tester is for the Scion platform.

Thanks guys. If you have any questions about this, post here or Email me. Do not PM lol. My PM box fills up almost daily haha...

Got a couple emails so far. If you guys want to be on board with a rapidly growing race team let us know!

So far we're happy with the applicants, but more doesn't hurt. If people have questions, suggestions, comments please let us know!

 

looks to me like your doing a great job! keep it up, can't wait to get my hands on one of these.... I'd apply myself, but realize that I am not qualified. But VERY nice deal,..I'd take you up on it...but your a year to early...I need to finish some more classes before I'd be able to keep up anywhere near you guys...some aspects of my car are still a mystery to me...

good luck with the kit and if you need anything "Scinergy GA" and I are here to help...if you find yourself passing through the "A-tizzle" send me a note....I'd love to see your car...

 

Will do man! Thanks for your support.

 

Joe, if you're "stuck" in FL, shoot me a PM and I'll take you out for a beer!

 

Well, sad to say that I landed back in Boston tonight. Went out to see Blue Man Group and at 2am I'm finally home. I'll already be attempting a new axle install tomorrow between all the errands and my football game (Best Buy football team haha).

 

Here's a pic of the new axle to be!

 

Is that another stock axle or did you find someone making a stronger one?

 

It's a stock for now so we can finalize the Stage 1 testing for retail sales. We'll then be sending 2 stock ones out for high hp applications.

 

sweet!!!

 

Well, with food breaks and some hand tools, the new axle is in! Looks like I'll be driving it this week again guys.

 

 

before i send the e-mail i figured i'd ask here since i wasn't quite sure. are you only looking for people in FL or in that general area?

 

Anywhere in the US. Thank you.

It's open to everyone and everything. We'll be choosing the best candidate(s) after we feel we got enough applicants.

 

I submitted interest in being a test vehicle long ago, and I still haven't gotten any word back...

 

How long ago and what is your email address? If you subbitted a request before we were looking for any additional cars, I can only say my apologies. VERY recent conditions call for us to get more tCs on bored. Before, 1 was more than enough. I'm sure you understand.

 

How sick would that be!!! Turbo Orange tC with lambo doors!


Is dezod still looking for test cars? I would be more then happy to use my car as a test car =) We could even do scionlife review on the turbo kit [/end scam to get a cheap turbo kit]

We are currently taking applications via email (Joe@Dezod.com).

We need help with Stage 2 donor, head upgrades, engine upgrades, and the racing axles. We will determine what will work best once we know who we'll definately be working with.
