Turbonetics all the way on that, dezod's kit is not better than turbonetics in my opinion if you look at the parts vs parts.

turbonetics and greddy have currently stoped making kits for the scion tc so they are getting scarce (so iv been told). not to mention right now pound for pound Dezod owns turbonetics price wise and does make as much power if not more considering the turbo selections that are available with the Dezod kit. However if you can manage to find a turbonetics kit (id look at turbochargers.com for one) you may get it cheaper than what it used to be.

Tnetics and dezods kit are pretty much the same.... minus BOV and tunning. Tnetics kits fit perfectly, but Id still say go with dezod or ptuning. The FIC is a much better tuning device than the unichip.

i think he has an 07 model so unichip is a no go, he would need to trade it in on an fic unless someone knows of a wireing harness that would make the unichip work on an 07-09....thers also hard wiring it i guess.

hit up todd have him make you something you will get a good price and parts on time if you have the cash spend the rest on building it and **** the body kit. your car is fairly new so im sure you dont need to mess with it whats you suspension look like ? im guessing stock. 7gs on motor and turbo set upwill get you close to 400 than spend the rest on some suspension tuning and the rest on tires and brakes.

400whp on a stock motor is more realistic than 500whp.

Its not going to happen with any of the kits you mentioned.

Your going to need an efficent manifold and intercooler setup (no "ebay" stuff)

ie one from TT or Ptuning.

Camshafts, valvetrain (allowing at least another 500rpms) will also help.

An intake manifold might help but not needed.****

Water/meth will be an added benefit as well.

It can be done on a piggyback, FIC or Ultimate (no blue)

oh and it wont be on pump gas.

And please oh please dont think your going to do it on a budget.


**** the right balance of parts that allow the ease of airflow will always help. But this requires allot of testing and time.

Regards-

Todd

well on the stock block I'd go with TT, DZM, or P-tuning.. I'm well aware that other people have mentioned.. but definately rods and pistons are a key item.. ( safety and reliability ) You can push that power, but how long you think it would last. Then a good tuner is another key.. It's a prefrence thing, products are a pick of choice.. people may say this and people may say that.. see what's out and what everyone else is using and just reseach specific bands of products,.. Affordabilty is another thing.. You've set a goal.. inwhich is good. but the question is how much are you willing to spend..
