Scion Tc For Racing?

I say stock it has to be on par with a sentra Ser (0-60 in 7.2 or less, quarter in 15.2-15.5)
Supercharger it should be quicker but you never know, as for performance, If i dont decided to get teh supercharger i/h/e should give me all the speed I want. I'm sure if toyota is smart they will realize that people are going to buy this, and want to try to go fast in it. So hopefully the stock transmission won't be weak, or axles specially since it is going to be priced cheaply I hope it can handle additional power.
example focus zx3 econo car some people when it came out thought good plat form for mods. If you tune more than 150-170 out of the engine.. you will have tranny problems cuz the tranny is rated to like 140-150(in hp it can handle)
The exact numbers may be off but just saying i hope toyota doesnt go that route..

yeah it sucks when you bump up your Hp and torque and you twist the hell out of your axles....don't know how they much the axles will be rated for but I plan do upgrade axles and suspension first on mine...... who cares if you have all the power if you can't use it.....kinda like that DSC import show 2 weeks ago when the dude in the Talon jacked up his car......that's not going to be me :D

Yeah i think a stock tC will run mid 15's....with a supercharger high 14's low 15's around that time.
Here is a cool link and they have some estimates on its 0-60 times. About the same or better than a Civic Si and RSX stock.

I'm not sure what kind of rsx it will be "killing" especially since they can hit a 14.9 stock well driven.. 13.7 with hondata i/h/e.. never know what else they will come out with for it. Not flaming but i think the rsx has quite a bit of potential, but it remains to be seen what kind of aftermarket will hit for the t.c HOPEFULLY it will have cheap parts like whats out for the xb.. lowering springs and such for around 129$$$ trd warrantied... sounds good tom e.

Actually, I wouldn't be surprised to see the tC run mid 14's stock, and with the s/c mid 13's. There is too much torque for this thing to only run 15's.

yeah the torque is gona really make this car good off the line....there will be a big aftermarket support for this car both through TRD and everyone else as well....we'll see other S/C, turbo's...the whole gambit.....

the tc is going to be a hot ride and anyone that thinks that it wont have the potential is insane.its going to be one of the hottest coupes out there. but as far as mods available at time of purchase those are going to be limited unless you go custom. this car will definatley give the rsx,srt4 and the si a definate run. it will be one of those cars that will look classy but bite you in the ___ if you sleep on it
