For the Nitto tC, a fully built up bottom end is all I know. I thought I heard one of the mechanics state that the one-off turbo setup was put back into the car just for the show taping. That leads me to believe that Jotech might have come up with a N/A T/A monster. It has been completely covered in a shrink vinyl graphic that looks rather sweet. The VIS Evo style CF hood and the CF rear hatch is not covered.
Tony warned that if you go with the VIS CF hatch, that you will have to remove the lift struts. If not, during the heat of the day, the hatch will warp up from the lift strut pressure.

A lil more spy work and I found out that a former SEMA show tC running 40lbs boost on a new turbo setup just laid down 733WHP! This is a yet to be confirmed report (hey, I'm no Dan Rather), but possibly the most powerful 2AZ-FE Scion tC that is still streetable. I can confirm that this was down on the same dyno that my tC laid down 228.4WHP so these numbers are somewhat accurate.

Me too. Kenny used to tool around Garland in the Nitto tC when it was just a mere 533WHP. I came so close to talking him into letting me ride around in it, but it was about to start pouring down rain and they wanted it inside the shop.

Here is an officially "unofficial" update as spied 02OCT07, another exclusive brought to you by Club-tC.Com!
Due to the passing of my Father this weekend, I was in the area of G-Town so I paid a sneak visit to Jotech. No TV camera crews milling about this time, so out came my trusty camera. The tC is now laying down 739WHP to the Nitto rubbers. Kenny has stated that he is amazed at the power potential of the 2AZ-FE motor. I will try to get the motor specs, but I do know this. It has a built lower end, CNC head work, stock cams, a small custom fab turbo kit, and a standalone that is custom piggybacked to the ECM for OEM functionality. The 2008 xB being prepped for the upcoming SEMA show is underwraps. Out of respect to Jotech I am tight lipped about it. What I can divulge is with the 2AZ-FE engine in tha box, expect for something wild. Stay tuned for more to come. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

The "OFFICIAL" word is out on the Nitto T/A tC. You can see it here on Jotech's website then follow the link to Nitto's official release. Keep a sharp eye out for the Project tC in the video background!
Remember, you knew about it 1st here on Club-tC!!!

I actually live in Garland, TX (Im currently at UT Austin for college!) and can say that Jotech is *the* place to go to to look at some really incredible work in N. Texas. Ive personally seen the Nitto tC and it is very sick :] He also has a yellow NSX usually parked out front too along with various other pieces of eye candy
Also I can say from personal experience that Jotech does amazing work, at a good price ($74/hr i believe, but with this price you get the piece of mind that pros are at work at least) |
