Stage 2 TRD liquid cooled intercooler
there are no plans for production afaik... just a corporate car they lug around to different events for showing off... that's all... been around for years.
btw.. that's not an '08 tC either.... lol.. more like.. an '05.

well.. that particular tC still has a FMIC located on the lower portion....
the liquid gets cooled by incoming air there and is fed back into that upper section (what you see pictured in the first post) where the liquid then cools the air going into the intake.
