Welcome! The search feature is an amazing tool....what it does is search for all of those very same questions, since 1000 people have already asked them.

If you put 20"s on it, you're going to need 3 turbos

Damn yo, why don't you tell him STFU? Unless you are willing to write-up a sticky to be placed in each category of the forum, get off your soapbox. It's people like you that take the fun out of a community by bashing any new comers. You can PM him or simply state it, but to take your cheap-sarcastic-shot to get some sort of board glory is just weak. Sorry, but that straight irritates me!

In any case, there are some basic mods available but the car is new. So, manufacturers are slowly making their products available on the market as compared to other popular imports such as Honda Civic, Toyota Celica, etc.

Just browse the boards and you can get some general ideas as to what you can do. The board is divided into different sections regarding suspension, engine, exterior items, wheels, etc. When you find some things that interest you, then you can start drilling down to see if stuff you find will work with this vehicle. I hope that helps and enjoy your new Scion. We all love ours!
