I don't see why they wouldn't work. I would look into a clutch that will hold more power than you have. Better to be prepared for future modifications.

If anything, im going to just add intake and exhaust, maybe some lowering springs, but Im looking for an inexpensive option to the $270 quote Toyota wants[for oem]

also hows this deal? auto dreams is charging me $400 + my own clutch kit, is that a good price from a reputable shop? he keeps mentioning something about having issues installing an aftermarket clutch on another 2007 scion but that might be him trying to get me to order the oem part from him for 250.

i just need a definite answer on whether these kits are any good, cause i cant afford this shop to put in my self bought clutch, try to install it have issues and now im stuck with a clutch i can't do nothing with just to have to order the oem one anyway. anyone have experience with aftermarket clutches in there 2007 tc's?

Go with EXEDY I have not heard of the other two. We have seen no issues with installing aftermarket clutches on 05-09 scion tC models.

Hope this helps

It will work the only difference in the 05-06 & 07+ is:

ECU
Wiring harness
MAF Sensor
Mechanical differences internally in engine
exaust manifold
and some other minor changes.

Clutches will work fine.

Gonna order this one. i sent an email to the three ebay sellers selling the same item at the same total price. told them i wanted it ups red saver [next day by 3pm] to my area code, and whoever is the cheapest I'll purchase it from [

i hope this guy at auto dreams does not have any issues with installation, i don't need any more bs, i just think it was a marketing ploy for me to buy his LUC oem replacement clutch for 270 at the shop :S

you guys feel i should have no issues with this clutch and installation? its a reputable shop, i just know times are tough and there already getting me for $400 in labor[is that even a good price?]
