How does anyone in their right mind think that their stock vulvo with an air intakes and a chip can beat the McLaren SLR which is one of the fastest cars in the world doing a 0-60 in 3.8 secs? Dont they believe that if volvos could actually do this people would save some money and buy a vulvo for 30K rather than shell out more than 200K?

Obviously you can not understand the use of sarcasm, o well.
Furthermore, if you would like to see the video of me beating a modified E36 M3 (AA Package/Euro HFM kit) while nearly keeping up with an E46 M3 and leaving a modded STi trailing behind I'd be more than happy to link it over this way
... oh, and yes this was in myVolvo 
I'd be interested to see it.

Well, I'm sorry you guys think we are stuck up. I would have to say that every car has its stuck up owners(That includes you guys). Regarding the post about the m3

I don't know why it matters to you guys so much. But there it is. JHEIII's volvo beating an m3 down the track.
That is on a stock ECU and a 15g turbo with a conocal outlet.(thats all)
Anyways. I think you should concern yourselves less about this post and try finding more performance options for your cars...
I have seen some nice tC's out there, it is sad that some of you represent them. I was just at the auto show, and saw the green (five something) with the mitsu. 18g turbo kit on it. Nice car.

thanks man for linking that.
So, any non-turbo's scions want to run in South FL... preferrably up at the track? Including supercharged, nitrous, etc. I've seen the turbo'd jamasco engineering one run and that was schweeeeet
So, any takers?
stock chip, stock turbo, stock exhaust piping, volvo...

What I did was read our thread....then the volvo thread. It seems as soon as we tried to defend ourselves at all, they say we are the stuck up _______s (well basically), yet they were dissing a car that they know absolutely, and I mean absolutely nothing about....and I mean nothing....
I just find it childish, that they can dis our car, but as soon as we say something they're offended. The volvo community does not represent very well. My friend drives a 240...yes its not the greatest volvo, but he has pride in it, he won't be a douchebag like you guys however and start tearing down another vehicle just cuz it can keep up.
Has that volvo forum gone ricer? When something keeps up, they need to knock it down to explain why...
Sorry, was my little rant...JHEIII I do respect you however trying to recover our forums little dispute. Infact, your car is sweet. I can not speak for the rest of your forum however....same goes with a few of the scion drivers here. But anyway...welcome to Scion Life....look around...enjoy the party..h.ehe

Delayed turbo, I agree with JHEIII. Maturity wins you respect , everywhere, not just online I hope that you can get a turbo or blower on your car because after that all it will need is wings(It will seriuosly fly!). Haha.
Oh by the way, that black sand pearl is damn sharp, I saw a tC with it the other day, very very sharp color.
Anyways take care...
