Looking for some advice on what to add before putting a turbo on my 06 scion tc.
also im looking for quick take off , any advice? thanks

 

gauges are a nice start.......gives you something to do while waiting for the arrival of your new toy....lol

 

upgrade the clutch
that way you can break it in without that addicting turbo in the way

 

good point olahalo

 

if you want a quick take off, fast boost response and more power on the bottom side, get a flywheel together with an upgraded clutch, get a small turbo like a gt28, lsd if you want to spend on it..

 

Already added cold air intake, JVT racing header, front sway bar, raceing downpipe, and JVT Exhaust, witch i could feel somewhat of a HP Gain, but nothing like i want, basically looking for, if someone wanted to race on the streetz, ill smokem, ill post some pics of what i have, thanks for the tips as well.

 

dude i dont have a turbo but i no some stuff u minus well take off ur header your intake and ur downpipe cuz u cant use any of that with a turbo set up... u just wasted that money ur best bet is to so supercharger if u want to keep that stuff on

 

the most of the upgrades you have will be taken off when you put the turbo, i say go for gt28, its enough to get you close to 300 on low boost and it will be a fun quick spooler.. but dont go racing on street, you get somebody killed

 

o well of course i cant use what i have on a turbo set up, yeah i wasted some money on the downpipe and header, but i could sell it cheap to someone around here, its hard getting auto parts sent to germany. but yeah thanks ace83 ill look into that

 

motor mounts would help get the power to the ground too...

 

Although that's not a neccessity...

I would do as Ace suggested and pick any GT28. There are several to choose from.

You can go to ATPturbo.com and pick up their cast T25 manifold and a downpipe for internally gated setup.. because most GT28's are internally gated.

Keep your IC piping small - around 2.0" for the hot side and at the most 2.5" on the cold side... although for low hp and quick spool I would do 2.25".

 

I would recommend starting with a clutch if your considering FI. Most of them require a 500-700 mile break in period anyway. So might was well get that done. Then maybe an exhaust...

 

yeah priority IMO, considering you have good complete kit w/ necessary F/I accessories

1. clutch
2. exhaust
3. suspension stuff like swaybar, endlinks, coilovers/good spring shock combo, motormounts

 

How about some clutch reccomendations, folks? I think I may need to go with a better clutch-pressure plate combo....

 

Of course...not till I FRY the stock combo!!! LOL!!

 

stage 3 will do and hold good unless you go beyond 350 tq

 

I'd recommend STage 4 over the 3, but it depends on the power that you're gonna make.

 

Any peticular brands? Something streetable and not overly grabby, I'd think. Heavy pedal not a big issue.

 

competition, being not too grabby is what you like go for stage 3.. but my stage 4 isnt that bad not even heavy on the pedal, just a lil bit stiffer than stock but i have a clutchmasters

 

Competition Clutch Stage 4 is the one of choice by about 90% of our turbo customers. In stock as well.
