I didn't call you a young'n in reference to your age. I called you a young'n because anyone that has been around the Scion community long enough would know that ScionSpeed is of no-more, as they are no longer in buisness because they couldn't produce turbo kits and were blowing motors left and right. You are unaware of this because you mentioned their name here, which is a taboo as much as TCTunerz.

The Engine has been proven to go beyond 300whp. It's the tranny these guys must worry about. So, the race is to see who can get the tranny to handle 300whp first, not who can get to 300whp engine.

Yes, but it's the guys like him who wait, and wait while everyone else have their fun laughing and playing with their boost, while he is waiting for his chance to strike. It's these people you have to keep an eye on, cause when they come out.....They Come OUT

BLAZIN!

Well I have my bike to but as of last night I just layed it down and my leg is pretty tore up. Well more swollen then anything. As for the car goes....sometimes I forget I even own it. The thing is they are doing a great job but I have to go back to Aphfganistan in Febuary and I just want a little bit of the hot weather to take it to the track.

lol if it was something like that. I took a hard right at 50 and got my front tire caught between the concrete and the dirt on the side. My leg took most of it but there went the new paint job on the bike.

Aren't you guys worried about your automatic transmition breaking with 300whp?

You're pretty much doubling the power on a transmition that is made to get good gas mileage.

Was NASA worried about going to the moon? You bet they were, but you never really know how somthing is going to work out until you try it and push the limits.
