There I am a nice summer after noon in Shitport LA. Just driving up the road and this Scion TC that turned on the road behind me a few blocks ago is following me. He finally catches up and revs that 4banger up at me. I look over like ya rite. then he takes off slows down and revs at me again, Now im like ok this guy is dumb. So I look over and nod my head, and he takes off I let him get a little lead, then I punch it. Cherp the tires shift into 3rd and Ive already passed him. I herd him shift and the little sneeze of a blow off valve slips out. So he pills up to me again and this time at a red light we go again this time I dint let him jump out I punched it it kicked side ways and I left him sit . I get to work the next day and my friend knows the guy and said he had the scion at the track and with the turbo only running mid 15's. That has to be the worst turbo set up ever. what a waste of money.

If you start with a turd, no matter what you do, it'll still be a turd.
Good Kill!

TRD only makes a supercharger for the Tc, but its a centerfrugal one so it might sound like a turbo? Even after the supercharger install it still only make around 200 hp and 230 with a 9 psi pulley headers and exhaust . I know this because Sport Compact Car had one as a project car.
