The turbo will not have that much turbo lag coz it is a small unit. It should be great!

That, AND I find the engine gets up in RPMs fairly quickly..

however, as I mentioned above, I wouldn't hold my breath for a Toyota TC or SC to come out for this engine anytime soon.

A turbo that small or just any small one would spool well before 4000 rpm.

dammm... thats what I'm hitting with my echo ... I've hit high 15's with a really good clutch... Maybe Feb. I can lay down some new numbers with the new lighten Spec kevlar clutch and my JUn Lighten flywheel...

if my memo serves me correctly whp is measured different in japan. it shows less but when you calculate it to out standards it is actually more. i will try to find the article that that i read this in. it also tells you how to calculate it and covert it

hotbox...that Toora car is here in the states man. They enter in the same shows that TSW does and I talked to them in person when ever I see them and that was by word of mouth. That's not a jdm car and those aren't jdm whp numbers if that's what you were reffering to. I hope that they are lower if you are correct but I doubt it.

Alright, cool man. But the thing that sucks is that the Toora is still making 124 and thats with company tuning and all that ____ so we'd be lucky to even hit that number which is pretty small still.

If it's 124 to the wheels, that's a pretty good number to have on the Scions.

Some of us are still jealous because people have 103hp.

I might be wrong about no turbo for the 1NZ-FE.. didn't realize TRD had a turbo at SEMA. Maybe there's hope still.

Sorry for the late reply on this topic ... Yesterday I went for a full tour of TRD in Costa Mesa facility and I confirmed it yesterday that they are planning of coming out with the Turbo Kit for the 1NZ-FE

Intercooled? Also, do you figure it'll be compatible with the engine bays of all 1NZ-FE based cars? (Echo, Echo Hatch, xA, xB)

Are you talking about the RS 1.0? If so, then it should be out in March?
