For you N/A guys, I am working on a few new ideas and getting things in the works to get these much needed parts out there. I am tired of hearing Honda this, Suburau that, and RB26DET swap. Those guys have had it too good for too long. The tC has what it takes to be the big power house. Look up Webcamshafts and there sponsored racer Leslie Durst-Armendariz's all motor Scion drag racer. This is a highly modified 2AZ-FE motor that has got some balls to pull high 9's N/A. She gives Kenny Tran a run for his money. Kenny has toyota truck block cranking some serious boost. Not fair you say. They are about even cause Kenny's car is full bodied tC (except for front clip) and Leslie's car is tC only by the 2 side body panels.

want more horse, help!
whats up everyone, i have the 06 tC. So far i have an Injen CAI, DC sports 4-2-1 ceramic race header, Megan down pipe and mid pipe, and the HKS Hi-Power axle back exhaust. im not sure exactly what im sittin at for hp or tq but i want more without using turbo or supercharger just yet. what are some other things i can do without voiding the warrant?
i hear the piggy back system sux, but i was looking at a lighter crank pulley, and the throttle body bypass kit.. any suggestions??

just get the TRD supercharger
it will not void the warranty, passes smog, and does not harm the engine in anyway and you get more hp out of the supercharger more than any mods

you should do it your self it is one bolt takes likes 10 minutes its the oem size so u dont need a new belt. ive heard around 10 hp and 11 torque i can tell a difference with my throttle responce but i havent got it dynoed yet so no positive numbers.

Sorry to say it .. but the DC header is NOT a 4-2-1 .. its a 4-1
There are a lot of ways to get HP .. NOS .. Crank Pulley I/H/E ( intake header exhaust ) .. a TRUE 4-2-1 header ex: Weapon R or Tsudo nology wires .. NGK plugs .. Fuel pump .. more .. jus gotta look and read around i'll go with NOS if anything

thread locker and a torque wrench are strongly recommended. I have a ZPI one with no problems.

Instructions should come with the product. Can someone please post the how-to. IF I have the chance, I will post something for you. It is very straight forward. Just remove and re-install is the basics.

Fully CARB compliant. That is why we had to wait so long. Cali was dragging arse on approving it. Talk to your Dealer or call TRD/ TRD sparks.
