Turbo vs. Supercharger vs. Naturally Aspirated
In a scion, I'm just going n/a.....it's not worth risking the engine with crazy boost, and when am I ever going to race a box on wheels? Unless we're talking about a car that isn't mine...i.e. the dealer car we're throwing a supercharger on tomorrow. Then I say hells yeah!
im leaving mine bone stock just going to fix up the suspension a bit. i want some serious HP and i know i wont get it out of this car so thats why im looking for another mayb a 240 for power and the funess of drifting. this car is just a car to cruise in but thats just me and what im going to do
A correctly done forced induction engine is no more maint. that a high performance N/A engine.
I prefer N/A high performance engines. With programable ECUs (not re-programed) a very hot N/A engine can make great power.

hey kids boost all the way and by the way u can squiz crazy boost out of the car bone stock since it has such a low compresion rate to begin with. el prototypes should be coming out with a turbo for the xb soon. i have a turbo xa set up for rally but u guys will never get there. also my car will be turbo in about 6-7 months depends on how much spare time i have to build it so if u got turbo questions ask and ye shal receive.
i love a turbo but on the scion engine i think a supercharger is going to do the trick
My thoughts exactly. The scion needs a little more power to it but turbo is over kill for a box. Just something so the power is there when I needed.
Unless it was a TRD installed form of forced-inducition, I'd probably stick to N/A. Some car companies state in the warranty info that if you supercharge/turbocharge your engine, it'll void the entire engine warranty. I'd bet Scions are the same way. And after sinking $15,000+ into an xB, the last thing I want to do is void my brand-new engine's warranty. Just my dos pesos.
