2011 tC
Here's my ride. Sporting a few TRD parts, and fog relocate. It's also lowered and what not. Pushing 200hp to the wheels.
What do you guys think. As for the haters of the SCION decal, I like it, so don't hate haha. It adds 4hp ;)

Although I highly doubt you have 200hp to the wheels nice ride ... How you put the fogs in the middle ?

Bc our cars come with 180hp at the crank which means that's about 155-165 hp to the wheels the only way "maybe" to get 200whp is to have headers , intake , exhaust , lightweight flywheel , lightweight wheels , motor mount , lightweight pulley , and tune ... & my car also has all the TRD parts on it too & it doesn't have more then 160 whp ... TRD parts mainly help with handling not engine performance ... & I'm pretty sure the dealership doesn't have those kind of fogs ... Then you get another body shop to do it ?

It is a clean car nonetheless I just don't see where the 200hp comes from

I don't think any TRD parts could get it that high, engine looks stock and doesn't even have the TRD intake, so I'm not really seeing what the dealership sold you for 200whp unless they just got your money

It was new from the dealership, show car. They told me it had the TRD intake and and all that... Is that really not a TRD intake? Because if that's the case I'm going to the dealership on Monday and raising a stink about it. Their Scion sales rep definitely said it had 200hp, perhaps it's not to the wheels which would be my bad. They told me it had 7 grand in TRD parts...

I'm am afraid that you were taken for a ride my friend bc that is the stock intake you have on ... The TRD one has a big "TRD" badge right on top in large red letters & scion tcs don't make 200 at the crank either so no where anywhere will an tc have 200 hp without a turbo or nitros sorry ... & Idk where the 7 grand in parts is bc I don't see any of them on your car ... You might have the trd springs & sway bars but those 2 aren't even 2 grand together ... So Idk what going back to the dealership will do but you can call them out for false advertising ... How many miles did you car have when you bought it ?

Not really sure what TRD parts they had installed....looks like the exhaust and springs can't tell if you got sway bars (you will have bright red bars underneath your car if so) they didn't give you the upper strut bar either. They prob got ya for at least $2k on the 5 axis lip kit and prob another 4-$500 for the rear spoiler. I would take a look at your window sticker and see what parts they claim to have added, def not seeing $7k in upgrades. Brakes are still stock too. Sorry to say but seems like you got burned bro. I would def go back to the dealership and raise hell! Maybe even go as far as contacting Scion and letting them know what happened.
Diggin the front mount fogs, must be a new accessory coming out? I saw you mention km, maybe it's a non US part?
Hope you get everything resolved!

You got trolled. Intake doesn't add 50hp.
^ Dealer installed parts/options always had inflated prices. I could see them charging close to 3K for the 5:AD kit.
^^Rsingh you really think legit CR Kai's, which they're not, cost $1500?
