Of course it looks similar to yours its an xB and the bends have to be the same. I wanted it vbanded that way he will never have to worry about exhaust leaks and V;bands are the ISHT. My exhaust on my tC is all vbanded thats the only way I would go.

I've heard there are issues with the XB ECU being unhappy with fluxuating A/F values. Has the vehicle driven over 300 miles since being boosted?

Yea Xero is the pilot you met. Thanks for the disrespect on the name, considering I am the one that built Homerhitas turbo set up. I am NOT a kid so thats 2 disrespects towards me already. So mayb next time you can add the tC since its easier to write bluesciontc rather than bluescionwutever.

Wish the blue beast didnt have the tranny out we could do a Turbo Scion shoot.

How could you call the guy who designed the kit a "kid"? Also, it's not hard to look at his screen name on these forums. tC is a lot easier to remember than "wutever".

Man that's awsome how the hole fam rocks scions!! Comgrats on the turbo, sounds amazing, I wish I was back in NY to check it out in person! You all did a he'll of a job on the xb, also I like how the tenzo intake was used, def a great idea for the MAF-S.

Any plans to get that baby on a dyno?


Once money gets better on my end I def will be looking to turbo my baby.
