Default How I got my Scion xB to go 120 mph

I decide that I wanted to try to keep the original car as best I can do I first tried super charger. And it push the engine up to 117 and if your crazy nos but make sure to have a pro shop get it put in for you or you could ruin the vehicle. hope this helps. Oh and what ever you do make sure to have a air in take in too. 👍

@Crazyjack133 You do realize you replied to a 16 1/2 year old thread, right?

And in that 16 years, they've forgotten how the offset crankshaft limits the ability to turbocharge/supercharge the OG xB.

Easiest way to make an xB go significantly faster is to remove the gas cap, roll the car out of the way, roll another call back into its place and replace the gas cap.

Not exactly a great starting point to make a car fast...or even moderately faster, especially given that most of the aftermarket support has dried-up being a 16+ year old vehicle from a now 'dead' brand.

There is no way to make the xB faster. I mean you could strip out all of its interior and any dead weight that is on the car which might make it slightly faster...... But you'd still be getting your doors blown off by the Toyota echo.
