Modified Mag June 2007
Not sure if anyone has posted about this, but this issue has a nice article on the tC.
It has the "Project Car Wrap Up Scion tC" article which includes a bunch of mods they did to reach a goal. They wanted to tune a car so it could be a daily driver (in SoCal, so therefore basically everywhere else in the US) and also gain a significant amount of HP.
They got it up to 210 WHP (from about 139) and 183 torque (from about 145). The main mod was the TRD supercharger, but they had other interesting things in there.
Well, if this hasn't already been discussed I'll post the mods that were done to the car.
The WORLD Racing 2007 Scion tC also has a page in the magazine. It was the FWD Class Winner. It recorded a 1/4 mile time at 12.113 @ 120.31, this was an impressive car. There is a lot more information on this car in the mag...
Side note:
My brother got to see this car in person at the recent time attack event in Utah. He was working with team AMS for their EVO 8 (which is also in this magazine, it actually won 1st in the Overall). He told me the World Class tC was at the event and it was quick, but on one of the final runs they decided to give it an extra boost and they suffered the consequences...
The engine blew and oil spilled all over the track preventing all the other cars to get their run in just because the tC.
Haha I thought it was pretty funny...
