Well If you look at this you can see that it can be done. Just make sure you find somebody to tune it the right way.

Thats cool how you dropped the intercooler down. I wanted to do that also. I think that little opening on the bumper is not enough to get air to all the intercooler.

Well because of the angle of the picture it seems that the intercooler is not exposed however it is completely visible to the front of it. The way I got it to fit here is that the piping is custom fit. This was the turbo system that was installed on the Tein show car. They parted it out and I bought it. I will say that it works better on this Scion Then on the Tein One. They had forgotten to connect one of the wires and they had to run it on High octane to make it work so they can move it arround. I have not had too much time to tune it but on the Dyno it pushed 145whp. Not bad for a small turbo.

Yes, all the Greddy kits use the 14g, but I wasnt sure if he was using the Greddy kit or just the Greddy intercooler.

I am using the Greddy Turbo kit. The intercooler along with the piping was custom to fit this application. If you do decide to go turbo. Make sure whomever tunes it will put the car in neutral at the end of the run on the dino if not they will blow your transmission. Peace
