Just bought my 1st scion. Its a 2012 7.0 series. Ive had it for about a week now. Its a pretty nice car. not as fast as what im used to tho. lol. not the pics.





and this is my old car 2005 cobalt ss/sc





thnks for looking. all comments are welcome.

 

Welcome. Why the switch from the Cobalt? And I see you are a fan of the yellow

 

Welcome. I got the black wing on mine also . I have always liked the Cobalt SS's. They are quick.

 

Thanks! The cobalt was starting to fall apart. it was out of warranty and i had a really aggressive tune on it. I deff miss it but i also love the scion. haha

 

Nice lol. I had been looking at a white tC for like a week and they pulled this onto the lot and had to have it. haha. im not really familiar with the car tho i know its rated at 180 hp...... has n e 1 dynod it and have a good baseline? also what are good mods for these?

 

^
I was thinking that in my head but didn't want to say anything lol. Well you made a nice move.

What are the plans for this one?

 

I've seen baselines in the high 140's.

 

wow. i was hoping a little better than 140. lol. I want to lower it asap. still doing a little research on the choices. ill probably buy the tein. and ill also buy the trd exhaust for warranty. but thats probably it until i get the cash for the descendant turbo kit. lol

 

What does the TRD exhaust have to do with warranty?

 

hey dude welcome!!!! i also have a rs7. its such a awesome car/color! check out my build thread!

 

" it only voids warranty if the MOD is the cause of the issue" thats the general answer ive always gotten when it comes to mods and warranty issues

 

thanks! i will check it out. Idk about toyota, but when i got my cobalt i had a header, catless dp and exhaust. a few months later my feul pump went bad (has nothing to do with exhaust components lol) and they voided my whole powertrain. Chevy wasnt an easy companty to work with. lol.

 

LOL!

i was scrolling fast and barely noticed that there were two different cars in the first post. i did a double take and was like...WTF that doesnt look like an RS7 hahah

welcome

 

I gotta injen short ram intake for sale if you want to take that off my hands

 

Pics? Pm me a price.

 

Welcome!

While the TRD exhaust is nice and has a great sound, there are other exhausts out there that give you more for your money. And Scion won't void your warranty for a mod. As was stated before, if it causes the failure, then Toyota won't cover it, but otherwise mods have no affect on the warranty. Technically, the same hold true for all car companies, but some dealers (including some Toyota ones) will try and tell you otherwise.

As for a drop, if you're just looking at lowering springs, I'd look at the Eibachs as well. I'm on Teins and have been toying with the idea of switching to Eibachs for months.

One last thing. Most baseline dynos of the tC2 actually are a little over 160 whp. I haven't seen any show as low as 140 whp on the tC2. That number was what the tC1 usually baselined at.

 

sent!

 

Wow. Just found out there is a prod number thing in the car. And my number sucks ___. Lol.

 

lol u just found that out.. how bad could it be?

 

1268. Gayy.
