Default Hi! From Puerto Rico

Hi guys my name is Carlos Berrios. Im from Puerto Rico and i own a 2013 Scion Tc in super white. This is my second Scion :-) my first Scion was a 2012 XD. I own this car for a few months abd decide to sellit. Well i hope to learn in this forum more about my new baby. This is my daily car so i dont think that im going to upgrade the engine to much! The upgrades that i want to do its intake and maybe a catback and for the exterior a frontlip and the oem rear spoiler. My second car its a 2005 Subaru STi that my weekend car and my track car :-). Well guys i hope to make new friends here! Have a nice day. Later im going to upload some pics.

Thanks mate!!! Btw i see that in your upgrades you have the K&N drop in air filter. how it work? Btw i want to know for the future if i install the intake and the catback i have to tune my TC2 ecu?? In the subies if you change something you have to make a new tune

You just take out the stock air filter and replace it with the K&N one. Its really easy and helps with gas mileage. and makes the intake louder.

as far as adding an intake and cat back you dont have to tune your ecu although it wouldnt hurt because youll be running richer than stock. I have though about getting a AEM F/I controller and getting a new tune once i get my Injen CAI so ill be getting the most power and mpg's out of it, but its not required.
