Default Hot Lava xB love it..

I got a xB Hot Lava #1572 added AEM CAI powder coated Orange (2nd Gen long extension), Borla Exhaust, 18" Enkei, Pirelli Z35's, Carbon Fiber Shifter, MTX.. Anyone getting torque steer? My xB has blown away at least 4 Civic's heh love it.
Anyone got an update on TRD supercharger? Also call Precision Toyata Tampa I think they got one more Auto-Trans Hot Lava. Ask for Patrick tell him Paul N. sent ya!

Remember you pay sticker I paid sticker and I love it still cheaper than anything else not half as cool. But I need to try to correct the torque steer too much power prolly add TRD struts and springs then TRD clutch..

Congrats!

Holy Cow, torque steer in these! Tell me your kidding please. These have almost no torque steer. It's called hold the steering wheel when you accelerate.

TRD is not coming out with a supercharger for these. As for blowing away civics with these, especially with those size rims..........we'll leave it at that.

Default NO BS!

I am not Bullshizzin My xB has Maddd torque steer.. 1st the new AEM CAI with the long extension goes all the way under spoiler is beautiful it sounds so sweet..2nd Borla stainless Cat Back exhaust gives the car unbelievable power . I am going to get it dynoed at my dad's dealership Precision Toyota.. The best part is all the mods were added by the dealer keeping all my warranties in tack!! Remember it takes the MAF and ECU about 350 miles to reflash..I have dosed Civics..Eclipses and a Z28 Camaro in town..I will add pics of all mods as soon as poss.the aem intake (2nd gen**make sure you get the second generation CAI not the shorty as they get heat damper*) is said to be dynoed at 13-15 hp.. the Borla cat back is another 10-12 hp added with the very soft Z35's and I think i got the top end of both I have had it so far at 102mph at 3950 rpm with lots of pedal left. Anyone know what cutoff is? SO my lava is prolly pumping 108stock+15+12=135 hp making a nice power to weight ratio..
Please respond
also i owned a 4.6 ATX mustang GT through a winding gold course road he almost spun out twice heh

You'll learn sooner or later, your power figures are just a TAD bit off.

But welcome to SL.

erm yea, deff. no torque steer in these. If you think it has TS drive a FWD with some power. Trust me you haven't felt anything. Even comming off a 90* turn onto a street it doesn't do anything(just picked up my xb tonight and had to play). Ill be nice and leave it at that. ZC isn't that impressive. sorry.

So you are getting 30hp from an intake and an exhaust. LOL. You're killing me man. You need to go do some reading yourself on theses cars and the products you have put on. The intake is dyno proven at ~5whp and the exhaust is good for ~4-5whp. That is about a gain of .1 seconds in the quarter mile. So now you are running 17.1 seconds maybe in the 1/4 mile. Last time I looked almost every car out there can run it faster. Especially a z28. No matter what generation it is. Remember, it takes two cars to race. Just because you are racing doesn't mean they are.

I put on two Randode Racing stickers and gained almost ten horses at the rear wheel!

Yup, the engine has too small of displacement to get more than that without FI. I beat an E55 AMG off the line, but he wasn't racing so it DOESN'T COUNT AT ALL.

"I have had it so far at 102mph at 3950 rpm with lots of pedal left. "

Do you even own this car?



I have a feeling this guy is a bench racer. Don't forget your APC sitcker or your metal wing that does abosolutly SQUAT - that's 30+hp right there!!!!! Oh, don't forget washer nozzle lights!!! They make you t3h ub3r-1337!!!!!!!! :twisted:
