Top Secret will probably not gonna work on xBs
Its the Supras and Skyline worth them to produce that 1000+ horse power
Area 51? They still around? I heard they closed down... BTW, I heard nothing good about them... so I will not use their turbo kit if they are still in bus.
Sounds more like XS Engineering to me, if the kit is XS kit, then you gotta have it
I'll check if they are working on xB turbo kit for you guys since I know people there

Since we're in the guessing game, my guess would be RevHard... but wait, I don't think they have exotic cars under their wings plus they're the one that's doing the Element turbo... scratch my guess....

yeah... area 51 sucks. blew my friends motor with a prototype supercharger for the GS300. They also blew an IS300 motor while doing a prototype. Yeah i also head that the owner of Area 51 has some sort of a relationship with ebay. I heard two rumors about the irvine shop. 1) they were selling stolen motors. 2) the owner had a divorce and needed to sell the shop. so i dunno.

I'm tired of waiting...
I can't help but to think that all these companies are waiting for the national launch of the Scion... instead of CA only...
So depending on how the sales goes nationally, they would start pumping out the products.... make sense from marketing/business perspective...
Frustrates the heck out of us CA Scion owners!!!
Oh well... I wasn't planninng on doing any mod until my warrnaty runs out anyway....
