Most of the people on here recommend the SC because it keeps your factory warranty intact and if the engine blows (assuming they can't prove you mucked with it), Toyota will fix it. Along those same lines, the majority of us have our tC as a daily driver so we can't afford to be blowing the engine on some whim for a little more power. If it were me, I'd probably take the 3-5k you'd spend on the S/C or a turbo and get an S13/14/15 or something along those lines.Originally posted by bluesciontc@Feb 2 2006, 11:02 PM
Super Chargers have problems they arent problem free. Turbos and Super Chargers both break its due to wear and tear every thing fails. The reasons the axels are breakeing and twisting is because they are using straight up drag slicks. If they use drag radials there would be alot less chances of this. So you being a dealer of course your going to want us to go SC but others we just want something different. The super charger just brings us in the "main stream" the complete opposite of what scion stands for.
How much have you sunk into your tC now? 10k? On top of purchase?Originally posted by JDangle@Feb 2 2006, 11:16 PM
had mine boosted for almost 20k and no problems yet. not even alittle smoke coming out of my exhaust. the reason is, is that i properly tuned it. my car now has 35k miles on it.
