Hello all,

New to this forum, hope to gain and share experience here.

Gotta admit that I do not have Toyota at this point, but I did recommand my friend to get a Scion instead of Honda last year.

What I could contribute to this forum is my experience of getting good deal on car purchase and how to purchase a new car. I am not car sales nor car dealers, just a software developer with a site to have people share their car price & quote. I did help some friends to get better car deals and I hope my presense could save you some money too.

Nice to see you all!

Dear Mod,

I would have included the URL in my original post at least if advertising my site is the intention, right? So take it easy, don't make things too complicated. Let's just focus on cars here.

Yeah no problem. I got ripped off badly when my familiy purchased new cars long time ago, so I hope people don't do it wrong. I make my living as software developer, not by the small site I built at my leisure time, so let's focus on cars.

How's supercharged TC? my friend was thinking to get supercharged, don't know if it worth though.

I got my SC for $1800 new from a dealership so in my case it was worth it. The old 05-06 SC units had some issues tho. Mine fell apart and a piece ended up tearing the motor up. Thank g-d for the warranty. $10k later I'm on a new short block and a 'revised' SC unit. The new SC seems a lot more solid. I'm back at stock boost for now but add a NST 9.5lb pulley and it hauls ass. A turbo will get you going faster sooner with less psi but once you're tuned a dealership won't touch your car and in the long run will end up costing you more if something goes wrong or you need to re-tune.
I'll probably eventually add the pulley again, a meth injection kit and tune with an AEM F/IC.
