PTUNING: 2011 Scion tC Turbo Kit (TONS of updates! on pg #1)
We just received a brand new 2011 Scion tC (Black) w/ manual transmission from a local Scion dealership to do a full build.
The build will include but not limited to:
*Turbo Kit
*Full 3" Exhaust
*Suspension
*Wheels & Tires
Before starting the build, we though we get some baseline pulls.
Below are the result & some added pics of the tC2 on the dyno:
Bone Stock 2011 Scion tC w/ Manual Transmission = 159 WHP @ 153.7 TQ
(The temperature in the dyno was 72 degree)
PTUNING Update 4/25/2012
We have decided to condense all the information from this entire thread, into the first page. This way all of the scion community can easily view our thread. We felt this would be much more accommodating instead of sifting through 20 pages for detailed information.

Here's a preview... I have a few things to work out but nothing special. As far as how it runs? Not the same car, not even close. Still getting used to being boosted - 2nd gear...pay attention, 3rd gear...lay on it and feel it, 4-6...better by sure no one is taking your picture because you are breaking the law . The power level is exactly what I was looking for out of a DD. Will I look for more? Sure, but not till XMAS.
Quick update - Several hundred miles on the car since getting PTuned. No CELs. It's getting 26-30MPG. Will update after next fill-up. The mid-range on this setup is STOUT and indicative of PTunings turbo sizing. It pulls so hard in 4th and 5th to the point where I think I may have some clutch slippage - need to verify after turning off TSC/VSC. For a DD I can't ask for anything more. Need to pass someone? Not an issue - hit it. Cooling fan came on for a couple of seconds after some stop and go traffic at 66 degrees outside. Moved the car 10 feet and the fan shut off. Overall - this setup is killer for a DD. BTW - I did not opt for a fuel pump or clutch - I'm an adult . There is more HP and TQ to be had if you go this way and if you do...get the clutch.
Mileage today after 1/4 city and 3/4 tank of highway driving was 28.6MPG. I'm halfway through the next tank and the avg on the meter is 31.4 so I'm thinking I should be around 30+MPG or close to it on the highway. What does this mean...? I've lost .5 - 1 MPG maybe being boosted. In other words I've got over 100HP extra and it costs me little to nothing as a DD.
You guys wanna here some crazy chit? The car pulled 33MPG with all hwy driving!!! Now this isn't to say that I never had my foot in it but it was 98% hwy with a couple of "spirited" passes and 3 or 4 city fly-by's. This thing is starting to loosen up and settle in.
Hesitations about buying this kit or service from PTuning...? NONE - All first class

Was it a shop or just an individual?
We just want a solid baseline number before product development on the tC2.

Thank you.
Wowser! The window sticker on the car only show 180HP.
So, we figure 159WHP on our dyno was dead on.

churches uses dynapack, hub dyno.. i believe gives higher numbers coz pulls are done without the wheels. I've always been curious how it performs using other dynos like this, now i know where its power really stands

Rob It was awesome to meet you last night at Knott's Scion Night. You showed me around the tC2 towards closing time right before Chris Rado was looking at it. I was the guy with the fro, must have been about 7:15p.
Pretty impressive baseline that you pulled of ~197hp and the setup that you're coming out with is insane! 333hp...sik. Definitely would want a ride in that thing. Keep up the good work!

Defintly going to be watching this.
And as for the the dyno numbers Ptuning got, i would have to agree with everybody that it seems realistic. although, curious how the other numbers are so hi? Is it really a difference between those two types of dynos?

the other dyno is closer to crank numbers, the dyno is connected to the wheel hubs and the car runs lighter without the wheels.. still those are legit numbers used as a tuning tool.. but imo doesnt represent the actual hp wheels put on the ground
