I'm just _____ing. Almost one year since buying a turbo kit for my new car - was going to be the hottest (and only) tC in the area. Would've been great to sponsor, shops in Minneapolis with any foresight! (As a Scikotic and regular MN Sport Compact member, lots of exposure to your parts!)

Now we're at 36k miles, my racing clutch is wearing out because there isn't the power behind it, and I'm still $6000 poorer than when I ordered a turbo kit and everything else a year ago.

So much for my ambitious start. Thanks tC Performance Shops On The Internet. You guys rock.

At least it's pretty.

 

Wow bro. You're ordering from all the wrong companies then. Sorry for your misfortune. There are plenty of companies selling turbo kits now. It's time you make a better choice

 

Well, first was ScionSpeed. And of course that didn't work out. Now ZPI is just..... whatever. I don't think that's coming either. I guess maybe it's time to start looking around again?

 

ive been hearing great things about the turbonetics kit

 

if you konw the right people, turbo doesn't cost 6Gs

 

Sorry to hear about that man, but may i make a suggestion.

My car was the test car and i must say that i couldnt be more happy.

 

Yo Taek, I bet you thought you knew the right people! I'm glad you got outta there though. I still wouldn't mind throwing a brick at his junk.

That other turbo kit looks great! Wow. Shiny! Looks like that's about... $5000 right there! VERY nice!

 

haha

i can get you a prety good kit down here

actually i can get anybody a good turbo kit down here if they contact me haha

 

Who did yours now?

 

Maybe its the hair...just kidding...nice fro. Well hope u figure it out man good luck. I thought about going turbo not too sure though.

 

Haha - I wish I had a mop like that. It's like...... nerf ball hair.

 

i don't have a turbo yettt.....but you can say that i will

 

Sorry to hear Draven! I know you got screwed by the first kit, that really sucks. If it makes you feel any better I am working on some more asthetic mods in the electronics dept... probably no help though since you are looking for a turbo

But hey, my new microcontroller programmer and some parts are on the way, so I may be looking for someone else to drive around with some mods in the near future.. what a better place to test electronics for cold weather than the twin cities! I'll keep ya up to date.. in the meantime, if you install a turbo let me see that thing!

 

that thing is awesome! how much power does that make?

 

That's the kind of stuff I love to see too - Yea! You've gotta let me in on what you're doing.

 

^^ I will surely keep you up to date. When I come up with something we can meet up for a beer or something and I will show it off to you.

I guess a bad year to mention cold weather testing here though huh? What a weak winter we are having! It started ok ... then downhill from there! Oh well, there is still a few months for winter to show up I guess

 

keep throwing money at it you bound to get faster sooner or later

 

Hehe - yea the winter can stay away for all I care! Can't rent skis or snowboards with size 15 hooves.

 

dern that sux

 

wow that does bite.. i thought that scionspeed was a raw deal and i thought zpi was gonna look out for ya but i guess that didnt happen either

on a lighter note a scionspeed tc had a little nos problem at the exposed show and melted his battery and fuse box also burnt up the hood and driver fender (i thought it was lighter)
