Hello All,

Sorry its been a while. Long term testing is just about done. We ran at Pomona Raceway Sat. and Sun. Paul was able to pull down a 15.2 at 98 mph. It was the first time running it at a track and he is still learning to launch the xA. One more run at the dyno for final tuning and the kit will be put into production after SEMA. Be patiant Scion owners, its coming, it has to be right before it goes on your cars.


Thank You,

nope it wont be carb approved. thats an easy answer..to get carb approval takes many many many more months of testing by government and the whole paperwork process...most people i know wont care for carb approval. i meant its a turbo kit u can take it off when its time for smog, and most of the time u wont get harassed for having it..i mean cmon we drive a scion..turbo is the last mod the cops gonna have on his mind. I use to have cars w/ F/I and never got in trouble for dailying them.

 

nah man chp's r major dicks. and puting a turbo kit on an off is not a simple task a full day man. plus pluggin the oil lines. p.i.t.a. i've never too much cared about smog but i never put a turbo or supercharger kit in a car. id be willing to wait and pay more for the carb. same thing with the blitz sc no carb breakin my ***** here.

 

wow. those are impressive numbers. What other mods are there on the xa except for the turbo kit?

 

if you are hitting 98 mph.... that's a mid 14 second car with proper driver...

was a price ever established yet for this kit?

elprotoypes please contact me when this kit is ready...

 

Definately a mid 14

 

Hello,

Question: wow. those are impressive numbers. What other mods are there on the xa except for the turbo kit?
Answer: A boost controller was used to go beyond the 7psi kit wastegate setting. That run was at 9 psi. A Fujitsubo axil back muffler is the only other mod to the engine.

Price will be released on the web site soon.

Any word on internals? I PM'ed you guys a while back, and I called and left a message recently...

 

Since you said the vehicle is at your shop nearly every day, how about you pop the hood and take a picture so we can see what this thing looks like. There's been pages of typing, but I don't see a single picture.

 

Must have missed the link to the imagestation album eh? Isn't really much to look at... all you can see is a couple pipes. The turbo is pretty much hidden being down in the back.

 

Is this kit going to work for teh automatic xA's?

 

bump, damn the waiting seems we get a nibble every once in awhile, only to be left in limbo

 

Yup it seems that way

 

itd be nice if any company made anything that was california friendly.

 

i think the only company that has an aftermarket turbo that is carb exempt is greddy. and those are for the civic and the integra, so i doubt we'll be so lucky.

 

are we they yet? jk any news yet

 

el prototypes are notorious for this.. at least they were to us Corolla people back in the day.

but hey, at least it's not Stafford Fabrication

 

^^ it's all good, as long as the product is good quality

 

they do get it right.. eventually..
