Just wanted to give you guys a heads up to let you know that we are about three weeks out from completing the prototyping and installation of our Stage I turbo kit for the Scion tC.
We will post weekly updates starting late next week. Stay tuned!!!
Congrats on the production TRP. It's great to see companies taking large steps like this for owners.
Super. This kit will be the 3rd turbo kit that I know of for the tC. Turbonetics has one and there's another but I can't remember the name of it. So far both kits have proven very reliable and should also both fit the Camry's 2AZ-FE engine.
::::::EDIT::::::
The 2nd company with a kit is ZPI.

HatenFate....Thanks for the support. Turbonetcis and ZPI also do provide kits for the tC. We hope to vary a little from those kits but there obviously wil be some overlap.

Luis u got to come out with a supercharger/turbo for the gen 4 5sfe! that would be crazy
Supercharger kits is not somethign we will really ge tinto as there already is a TRD kit available, but a Gen4 turbo kit will be released shortly after the Gen3 kit is finalized. They will use the same integral components just change to fit the body styles.
I can list all their mods if wanted, later on when i go on, jut ask. The turbo they used though, was the garrett gt42R 78mm.
I doubt the stock block could hold that much horsepower. They must have done an engine swap. Chris Rado drives a 1,400+hp tC even though it has a truck engine.
Also, there are getting to be plenty of companies out there with turbo kits:
Team Redline Performance
ZPI
Turbonetics
Greddy
Dezod (my personal favorite)
Treadstone
Stripper Motorsports
World Racing Descent
ScionSpeed (went out of business because of shoddy products)
