426 HP To the wheels Scion TC!

check this out guys! Theres an article, vid, and Dyno sheet

thers a 600 hp tc runnin around sumwhere it was on turbo mag i think, the aftermarket is huge and growing definitely a worthy tuner car

It also means you can do the same with a Solara. the TC coming out is great for the I4 Solara guys. I guess this means my mom's engine should be able to take some abuse.

But the Solara is also heavier.

same engine doesnt mean much look at corollas and celicas

yup about 300Lbs more

what do you mean by that? The Celica isnt any faster than a corolla, and although they say a Celica GT has more power, it really doesnt. Only difference is it might breathe a bit better because of a different TB and Intake manifold. despite what you might think the engines and performance are the same.

i meant aftemarket support, as to my knowledge the celica has far more than the corolla despite having the same engine

thats wierd how the tc,xb dont know about xa, got so much aftermarket support so quick. I wanted a tc so bad a while ago, when i THOUGHT i could afford one. I still want one, but then again, i want to have enough money to eat!

^^ If a company wants a car to get aftermarket support, it will. Toyota has had massive advertising blitzes, everyone thinks this car is the next big thing, and want to have parts ready for it.

Same engine means same cams, (generally) same ECU and/or tuning, and the response to a mod will generally act the same. Stuff like CAI, exhaust, etc. is body-specific though.

Umm...the Celica is faster than the Corolla...and the Celica is more powerful. Stock dynos are generally showing a consistent 5-7 whp more in the GT than the Rolla. Stock 1/4 mile times show the Celica to be faster on average as well (and the difference is too large to be associated with weight). And if the engine can breathe better, then it will perform better (make more hp).

I would race any stock, auto Corolla and win every time, unless my engine blows up, I run out of gas, or get hit by a meteor. My friend's butt dyno tells me it's true (he's been in both cars), hopefully we can race sometime to prove it.

what kind of celica do you drive? didnt you only run like 16 something on the track the last time?

17.064 to be exact. I know more than half the rollas on this board, im sorry probably 3/4 of the rollas on this board can beat that. im only .4 seconds behind you in my slow ass 99

lol im being a post whore... if my tires were inflated, and there was no shit storm with 100mph winds that night, im sure i could have broken into the high high high 16's.

my tC can whallop my corolla, but everyone knew that

well i ran a 16.8 in a pretty much stock 85 corolla

autos are weaksauce

yeah and as far as corolla's go, oldschool > newschool and RWD> FWD

I have an auto GT (1ZZ)...which is why I said I could beat any stock auto Rolla. I probably should've worded my first post a little nicer, sorry about that.

bad launch + tall gears = 17.06

With full interior I could've expected about 17.5. With even more weight reduction (I had rear seats and cushions in, there are some easily removable plastic panels, and I had a full tank of gas) I'd be in the high 16s, perhaps pushing 16.5 but that's probably a stretch.

A 5spd GT runs around mid/slightly higher than mid 15s stock with a good driver, higher 15s with an average driver. I've seen slips from 5spds that dip into lower 16s, but usually they run on 18s, don't take their subs out, and/or don't drive very well.

On a side note the fastest n/a auto GT I've seen is 16.2. I don't know how he did it on 18s with only I/E, from his description it sounds like he powerbraked pretty far (spinning tires).

that's because the xA , xB have been in japan for years and had already built an aftermarket base.

that's how i can get parts from companies like APR, Cusco, Blitz, etc.. my car is originally JDM.

yea iam just waiting for the loads of stuff for the tc to come out... bits and pieces have been comming out but i really havent found a site that really has it all... iam looking for somewhat decient euro tails for the tc but havent found any... in time it will come

Sweet.... I saw that featured tC at the Denver AutoShow

So 426WHP to the front wheels. Holy torque-steer Batman!

ran 12's at moroso..

and then they sheared the front axle is half.....

This is the tC I saw at the show and I'm sure this is the 600 hp one that bulletswordsman was talking about....

that thing is sick, if u took off all the stickers and throw on some 17" wheels instead of those 20's, it'd be a nice sleeper.

hell yea it would man.... but well I guess all those sticker is what makes it have 600 hp right? lol ... I can't believe this picture came from my camera phone lol I thought it was gonna be way blurry and low quality but well here u go guys enjoy lol... I'll post some pics of the x-runner, lexus and some other cars later on

no fuck that leave the stickers on, add an aluminun wing! nowadays people see that and think RICE!, when u got 600hp theyll eait their words, rice is the new sleeper lol

thats why i love my tc its a sleeper...

aluminum wing?? NOOOO NEGATIVE X100 man no way that will defenetly ruin this masterpiece... I'd rather stick with the stickers but the wing? that's a big no no
