Can't wait to see your pics and videos 8psiXA.

Is your xA a DD?

 

yeah its my daily

 

i really hope you can get your xa running strong 8psixa. good luck.

 

GL with the setup 8psiXA hope everything goes well cuzz im still saving for the kit........been workin 6 to 7 days a week to save up for the kit bust i still dont have any money to show for each weeks pay.........i gotta stop eatting ..........

 

Hey Todd shoot me a Pm for the price of the kit without the intercooler cuzz i rather not cut/trim my bumper support and run a 28"x7"x2.5" intercooler right above or below the bumper support......

 

This sounds good. Looks I'm going to start saving money...

 

Sorry, the mechanical workings of the car are a little beyound me, I'm more cosmeticly smart than mechanical. When you say 2.5'' system I'm assuming that's a complete exhuast replacement? or just cat back? I have the TRD catback and it has a 4'' tip, but I don't know if the whole exhuast kit is 4''. The TRD isn't loud enough for me, I want something louder.

 

I have another question for you TurboToyotas. Its about the intercooler.

Could I run a different intercooler or are your pipes designed to go with the PWR Intercooler? Since I have an auto, I was going to get the Koyo Aluminum Racing Radiator, what else do I need to help keep things cool? Do I have to do anything to the tranny?

I'll be taking off my Injen CAI and my DC Headers when I install the kit. What kind of Air Filter comes with the kit?

I have about 4-5 months left of saving up to do. Can't wait

 

Johnathan... the TRD exhaust you have is what is called an axle-back. It is just the rear section of your exhaust that starts right before the rear torsion beam (axle). The diameter of the piping on that exhaust is 2.25".

What Todd was recommending was a 2.5" exhaust from the header back. Or at the very least from the catalytic converter back. Right now, none of the big name companies make anything like this. You will be looking for custom work from a local shop, or from one of the companies building the turbos.

To be quite honest though, if you don't already know the difference between an axle-back, a cat-back, and a full exhaust, you probably aren't ready for forced induction. Or at least not a turbo. Start studying. Research as much as you can. Turbos can be trouble free. But they can also be a huge headache. Just be sure you know what you are getting yourself into before dropping big coin on something you just think would be cool to have.

 

good advice^^^^

 

Yes very good advice I wish more members would give Dustin the respect he deserves.

All the components of the kit are designed to "fit" together. You could use any intercooler you like, you will just have to make intercooler piping that will fit for what you choose.

For any automatic I would recommend a tranny cooler.

A K&N air filter comes with the kit

all my friends who have seen what this kit has to offer say it is by far the most well built kit out right now component wise. wish i had the scratch for one.

 

Todd, Could I run a different air filter?

Now I'm going to look into a tranny cooler.

 

LOL. Thanks Todd. I just do what I can to help out fellow Scion members. And unfortunately for many, I am not one to hold my tongue. I know that the dislike for much of what I say comes with the territory. But who cares right? Its just an internet forum.

 

Its ok Dustin, we can only try right?

That's why I am here. To help the Scion community grow and evolve;)

 

So will you finance my turbo kit? but on the real your company doesnt do financing do yall? cuzz i rather not fork out 3K all at once cuzz i just done that to buy my mom her tv and now im back at square one which is Broke haha.....and how are the axels coming along? any internals like rods and what not?

 

Well to answer your questions:

1- I do not offer "financing" but we can put together a payment plan that suits your needs. IM for details and that applies to everyone.

2-Axle testing begins shortly, there are not my axles as I am helping another company test and develop theirs.

3-I won't be offering any kind of internals as there are many brands that offer them. You can get pistons from Rolhard@Raceprecison, rods from crower or cunnigham etc.
I try and stick to the things I know best, plus I already have enough on my plate ;)

Regards-

Todd

 

I was heavily looking into trading my xA in for a tC to do a proper turbo setup.. then I decided to come around here and check things out on anything new from ZPI or Greddy and stumbled across this...

I think I'm gonna keep my current Egg for commuting (I just broke 65k) and get another 06 xA and turbo it =)

 

Ive been in Iraq for a while and haven't been checking on Scion-Life. Anything new in the turbo scion world? Anyone making internals for our engines yet? I'm trying to figure out what I want to do when I get back to the states. Sell the xB and dump money elsewhere, or build the box. I wanna do a fully built turbo though, and before I left there werent many options. Anyone willing to fill me in on any changes?

 

hey Todd do you think you can post up some flix of your kit? like how it looks in the engine bay?

thx man
