Awesome! Now I just have to save up for one lol

How much will these be running for the xb version? Is the intercooler going to be a front or side mount?

Hello guys! Retail pricing will be similar to our current Scion tC kits which sell for $3495.00 & $6495.00. The "Bolt-On & Go" kit will be a CARB Pending Kit that contains a catalytic convertor downpipe & a Plug-In-Play engine wiring harness for the ecu. The Tuner Friendly kit is all the hard parts minus Fuel Management, Injectors & CARB certification. As all other DESCENDANT products the turbo kit is 100% made in the USA & comes with a lifetime warranty.

Thank you. You saved me from buying the TRD SC with only days to spare. I can hold out now that I know a pnp solution is at hand.

For now the only DESCENDANT products that we sell separately from our turbo kit is the s.s. turbo manifold and the intercooler / aluminum piping kits. In the future we do plan on selling the DESCENDANT plug & play Scion wiring harnesses but currently they are only available with the purchase of the full "Bolt-On & Go" Turbo Kit.

The price is a bit steep but from the looks the quality is there plus carb certification is a very important factor. Not only this but at least for the XB guys the pnp harness and bolt on n go kit is priceless. In my opinion is a bit pricey but still within reason. Especially if you can bolt this on and not have to be back here saying my manifold is cracking, my fic is acting up, my pipes are to low or wont fit right, I had to wait a year for my kit to come in, my car stalls out cause of my bov, or I had to take my kit off to pass smog. I know only time will tell and until these units start moving and folks start posting their experience we really wont know. Still a very nice kit. One of the most complete out I think.

I think its because there is very little aftermarket support for the xb2 (and it will probably never be as strong as the tC) and we are happy to see something like this finally coming out for the 08-09 xb.

If it becomes carb legal it is worth every penny. Getting this kind of performance carb approved only proves quality...n that you guys know your SH*T. 2 Thumbs up in my book.

Here are a few more pictures of the R&D test Mule...1 is from the dyno tuning sessions back at WORLD-Motorsports East and the other is 1 with the front bumper off displaying the side mount intercooler.
