lmao I raced the model civic with my tc and hell no will that civic pull that much away from a supercharge tc..... Its either you bull shitting about the supercharged or the tc driver jst cant drive....
whats the turbo name and size of ur tc... and is it stock motor .. cus i just buy a 2005 tc and trying to put turbo on it ,, help me in what u can.. thanks
But then why is every teenage importtunerfaggot buying a scion? How come you NEVER see those people buying GTP's? By trying to be different, they all wind up buying the same car, and as such they aren't different at all.
That's because they have a reason to. Countless records have been broken in a tC. Fastest FWD car running in the mid-high 6sec 1/4 mile belongs to a tC, fastest FWD's on various race tracks around the country, belongs to a tC. They aren't using different motors in them either. Using the 2az that comes in a tC.
That's true, but all FWD! Personally, I think that's like winning the disabled olympics....wow good job you're the fastest guy on a wheelchair ever.....well done i guess...
For the money, a tC is NOT the car to buy if you wanna be fast. Maybe a supra or a mustang or a c5 corvette etc
Iono, I have far too much respect for your argumentative abilities to call you a ricer, so srsly some respect to ya =P
Again, I've told you once already, if you are faster, drivetrain means nothing. You think the race prepped WRX/STI/Evo's are concerned about Drivetrain when they see PTuning's Scion tC passing them up on the track? You think an Evo driver is concerned about what wheels are turning when he is getting beat by someone else? They just know they lost and the other guy was faster. For the money it's a stout car on boost. 2.4L of displacement so a decent sized 4cyl.
Sure you can go buy a Supra for $30k with 100k miles on it that someone else has already beat up on, the interior needs work done to it most likely...etc. But again, if everyone did that, who would be different? It's about the enthusiast at that point. What he or she prefers. You want a new car or an old one? Would you like to build a car out of less, or buy one already done up for you for more? That's preference. Speed on the other hand is not so much preference, but the guy with money.
@rhythmnsmoke ok here it is tc is nice evo is nice sti is nice but what do thease cars have in common ? well japan put their heart and soul into thease cars to show the world that science is were their are headed in the car world the tc and evo are so far advanced in ecu tuneing its not even funny for example we just tuned a tc in our shop and toyota in their wisdom and grace decided to implement a ecu that can learn what we tuned by piggy backing and correcting it on it own wow?
@TheYoda05 Yep, only a few piggy backs/modules can set the tune and keep it that way until the tuner changes it. Some keep it for a while and then get overwritten by the factory ECU. There are however, AEM EMS, Hydra, Haltech and the X1 standalone management systems that are available for the tC that you never have to worry about the factory ECU.
FYI...before the name Scion, there was no such thing as a 6sec FWD 1/4 mile drag car. Now there is. Chris Rado broke into the 6sec 1/4 mile time with his FWD Scion. Fast is fast, don't matter what the drivetrain is.
You wanna go fast? Ya need money. Anybody can dump tons and tons of money to go fast in a straight line. Before scion, nobody did a super-fast fwd because everyone thought FWD was a retarded platform to work on. Why do you think every serious civic tuner eventually switches over to the 240sx or some other RWD car? The only reason i have respect for Chris Rado is because he can also drive his car around a track too....something that FWD cars really suck at.
Before Scion there were FAST FWD cars what are you talking about? Second off all, I gave you only one example, you think it stops there (at straight line speed that is). By your comments indicate to me that you know nothing of scions for one, and two you don't follow today's "current" motorsports. Civic Tuners switched to 240sx's because they wanted to jump into drifting. Funny two tC's compete in Formula D. You heard of PTuning? Time Attack Modified champs 2008 and 2009.
no, I DO know about it...I actually follow it quite well. However, you're talking about professional, full-fledged RACE machines, not street machines. it makes NO sense for the average motorsports junkie to convert a tC to RWD. Furthermore, getting a FWD to drive around a track well requires time and money - two things which race drivers have, but the average guy doesn't.
Again, you are not making any sense. You think just because you go and buy an STI, Evo, 350z, S2k...that you are fast? Those cars are not fast from the factory. You have to put money into them to make them fast just like every other car $40k and below. Furthermore, who said anything about RWD conversions. The tC's I'm talking about are still FWD. There are street driven tC's with 600+whp. Guy has a vid on here if you want me to link you to it. There are 500+ street tC's reving to 8000k+
And it takes money to put ANY drivetrain car on the track and make it go fast. You think the Evo's, STI's, 350z's, S2k's 240sx....etc....are race cars just by putting them on the track? The cars that run in Time Attack are ALL Full-Fledged Prep Race machines, not street machines. And quite frankly that's really a false statement in itself, as there are street class cars in Time Attack. I ran Redline Time Attack this season, does that make me a full fledged Race machine? I still DD my tC.
PTuning as mentioned, their tC is not beyond what a normal person can build like Rado's car is. I have vids of them passing up R35 GTR's on the track. And just FYI....240sx does not come from the factory "fast". You still have to build it or motorswap them to make them fast just like Civics, Scions, Acura's...etc.
lol that's exactly what I'm saying...it's not in the power for most people to build it that way. Hell, I've seen LS1 powered RWD civics, but you're not going to see many people driving those around...
yep, 240sx isn't fast from the factory (like domestic V8's^^) but it has a LOT of potential. Like I said, I'm not an import guy, but I hear the SR20det can boost so high that the president of some japanese tuning company drives a 700 hp S15 as a daily driver.
And I'm saying the same. The tC has a lot of potential and the aftermarket support to back it. Look beyond the teeny boppers driving around in stock tC's. Check out the guys like myself, and guys I know, and pro teams smashing records and it shows the potential of the chassis. 700hp is nothing new to a tC. Jotech has one with 740+ and running a stock crankshaft on top of that. The transmission is super stout. Seen as much as 700+whp on a stock tranny.
when someone beats a stock tc they think its a slow car then they challenge someone like you with a full turbo kit or soon to be one they will think twice about the car...i see it all the time i just got the basic bolts ons and i pull pretty good nothing exciting but once i go turbo its goona be night and day
In conclusion, unless you have access to as much capital as Chris Rado or have Rado's driving skills, a tC is NOT a good platform to work on. Just take a look at how much money you need just to get to 12's! Hell, evo's can do that with a couple thousand....
In conclusion, your argument makes no sense. One "look at how much money you need to get to 12s".....dude, the car in this video is running a stock motor. It just has a turbo kit bolted on, nothing special. There are 12sec tC's using a stock motor, you sound as if they dumped money into building the motor and stuff. Then you mention an Evo needing a couple of thousand....LOL...how much does an Evo cost OVER a tC to begin with? So it's not a couple of thousand comparison.
Okay, so a turbo kit is 5K. Let's ignore the race gas and all the other likely bolt-ons that he has. Evo's need 1K or 2K to get to 12's and have AWD stock. But you ARE right about the base price difference of 15K or so but if you're really into motorsports, then most people have no problem buying used =P
And if you are really into the car you bought....You don't care what amount of money you spent on it to reach whatever goal it is you want to achieve. That's the point you are missing. I love my tC. I wanted to make it fast and I did. Price wars are irrelevant. I have a 350z and I have a boosted/track building tC.
And yes you can ignore the race gas ans what not on this car, cause that same time can be done with pump gas. This car was around before the aftermarket took off for the tC. There are better applications out there now that will get you to those times without race gas.
A stock Evo will get walked on by a basic bolted on turbo kit Scion tC, I should know, I have vids of me doing it. A tC on 9-10lbs of boost is going to put you at 300whp/300+wtq depending on the turbo. That's going to be way to much for an Evo, STI, 350z, etc...to handle. They are lighter than those cars to begin with, and giving them the power behind it = winning races. Is FWD better than AWD, of course not. Not what I'm saying . I'm saying drivetrain means nothing when you are faster.
Depends on what year evo, what bolt-ons are attached, turbo size, type of gas, etc. "Basic bolt-ons" is far too vague...
It depends on what kind of race...around a track an evo/sti/Z will do better than the tC. In drag, it sounds to be a driver's battle, because although the tC would have a much better power-to-weight ratio, the evo/sti has AWD =P
BUT it's all about domestic V8 man...honestly I'm not an import guy, I just have some respect for some of em.
I said stock Evo, and I was referring to an Evo 9. I have video of me pulling on an Evo 9 MR version. I was not on some high boost level either, only pushing 9lbs. The Evo would need to be modded like I mentioned. Again, you are being to general on top of that. If I have better tires on my tC and am a better driver than the Evo guy around my local Road track, how you figure he is going to out lap me? Let me guess, because he's AWD right? Takes more than drivetrain to go fast.
really? cause i don't see that at all all i see is that it runs what it runs on 103 octane..... i don't think you read what i wrote.... i aswked what does the car run when not on 103 octane (on pump gas)
yeah i did.... "whats it run on pump gas" as in how fast of a 1/4 mile while on pump gas.... maybe you don't know this but saying "whats it run" is just like saying "what does it run"..... english is a nice language try and learn it
Does it really matter when there are vids of tC's running mid 12's on pump gas only? And tC's making 500whp on only pump gas or 550whp on pump gas and 50/50 meth for safety.
jesus crist i just wanna know what this car runs on pump gas why is everyone making this so hard? i don't care if it only makes 7whp or 49383948whp i just want to know if you take the higher octane fuel out of the fucking car, what does it run?
Jesus crist, all I did was ask what difference does it make? Because there are some making the same and some making more on pump gas than this car did. Kinda like...."who cares". You will never know what "this" particular tC runs on less than 103 because it's not around anymore. Video is years old, and the company behind that car turned to shady practices.
i asked cause i'm trying to figure out if it is worth running high octance gas just so i can run my goal or if i should just man up and get more boltons
I wouldn't consider 103 oct to be "high". I can get 110 at the pump. Most gas stations where I live have 93 oct as premium, and one Gas station has 110 race gas on pump. I imagine you are speaking along the lines of putting race gas in and tuning the car for it right? Cause just throwing race gas in there is not going to be nearly as beneficial as if you tuned it for the specific octane.
Get 2 tunes - one for pump and one for race gas. BUT, boltons is always better than race gas imho. Race gas IS worth it, but boltons are worth more =P
believe me, if it wasn't for the Supra and Gen 5 Celica, Toyota wouldn't be worth mentioning. Honda is eh. I was trying to say if you were gonna get an expensive Civic, just get a damn Civic, not a POS Scion.
I am considering getting the TC in black with pink neon lights at the bottom. =] Also tinting the windows to the darkest legal tints possible. =] Sickkk carrr. <3
@adiosk8erxxx I had a scion tc as well and they are torque monsters for sure dude, a stock Tc will beat a stock civic Si.. Si might have the HP but the tc has torque, I beat hondas all day long lol, And i also beat a few fox body mustang gt's as well :)
dude if performance is what you want then obv get something lik this and hook it up. And theres nothing wrong with that. But dude you gotta grow up sometime. Theres nothing wrong with loving your car, no matter what it is. But there are more important thing in life than racing all day and 1/4 miles.
If youd actually choose a hooked up scion tc over an M3 you are high
a dick* (damn thing)... seriously your an asshole. saying everyone who puts money into a tC is an idiot. your the idiot for thinking that there isnt a 4cyl faster than you...
im not sure i understand why people have to get so personal. seriously. how old are we here? 8? dont say 'wasting money on a 4 cyl' there are PLENTY of 4cyl's that stand up to their name. & i drive a tC, but that doesnt make me
hey stupid why u think ur cars so fuken fast race it with a m6 and then will see who the fuks faster, every car has its match ok, scions should mostly likely be raceing hondas, integras and cars like those, ok race a fuken m6 and well see how fast ur m3 is, and if ur car fuks up hmm it takes u thosands of buck 2 fix it back up, damm ur retarded
Please people, if you drive a scion tc, don't attemp to race an M3. I'm getting sick of wasting valuable gas on you knuckleheads. Get a clue, and get a real car, one that's already built for speed and making you look like a retard on a moped.
Wow!, your completely retarted. It takes thousands of dollars in upgrades, for you to even get to the performance level of an M3. The only dicks out there are idiots with 4 bangers wasting thier money on expensive mods thinking they're in a Fast and The Furious movie.
haha ok you can be in your fairy tale land. Just because a civic has a wing, and some 16 year old is driving a weed wacker, does not mean all four cylinders are bad. Hell the scions are pushing 300 horsepower no problem and one dude is pushing over 500. Not spending a lot of money at all either.
its better to be young and spend money on fun mods then to be going through a mid life crisis and drop a shit ton of money on an m3... spend 17 for a brand new scion, spend 9 thousand on a built motor-turbo setup (quoting that very high) and we still whoop your ass and have money to go to dinner afterwords... now who is the idiot...
Hey "DevilTC" are you referring to me in that last? Cause I said nonthing along hte lines of turbo much less how much that engine can tolerate before blowing the heads........and a quick questinon. Whats fast to these oher kids? :)
just a carbon fiber hood will get u in the 13s.. lol jk. well it says it on the video.. stage 3 turbo running on 15 psi. whatever you do, dont get the trd s/c. im lookin into either turbonetics or dezod
The Turbonetics Turbo kit at 8psi puts the tc at 300hp to the flywheel i saw the dyno sheets for it .. its crazy. all it is its a turbo dropped in.. everything else is stock..
well its a complete kit with intercoolers, BOV, etc. but yea, i know exactly what youre talkin about. 300hp from 8 psi is insane. i bet labor costs is gonna be a bitch though..
The Turbonetics Turbo kit at 8psi puts the tc at 300hp to the flywheel i saw the dyno sheets for it .. its crazy. all it is its a turbo dropped in.. everything else is stock..
I'm afraid you have your facts wrong sir. The STOCK ENGINE COMPONENTS will tolorate up to TWENTY-ONE PSI (21) with no problems. But since your so cool I'll translate it to metric for you *1.5 BAR* atmospheric pressure.
The tC and Camry share the same ENGINE BLOCK, thats it, everything else is different. Do some research 'tard.
Scion Speed took a lot of peoples money. People thought they were purchasing kits and the company kept lying saying the kits were sent but they never were, they just put money into their scion. They ended up filing bankruptcy or had a lawsuit against them or something...
Also, nobody gives a shit what you do for a living. There'll be always somebody out there in cyberspace that has a better paying, more exciting job than yours. Get over yourself.
jesus there are barely any comments about the car and most are just bs arguing... completly irrelavant to the video. honestly dont try and stand up for yourself and no need for your life backgroud info.. no one gives a shit.
anyways, sick car... anyone know what brand they went with?
Plus I own a s/c version of the tc as a fun car. also along with my wifes escape hybrid, and my ford f-250 diesel with over 500hp thanks to bullydog. Moral of the story.. Don't post stupid comments cause they just make you look dumb. The guy put this up for TC fans.. if you don't like it. don't watch it. oh and yes i can type an grammar correct response but i don't thank you tube requires that.. bump for a sweet ride man
To each their own right? My version of a fun car is my lifted truck to tow the boat not a vehichle that sounds like a lawn mower. And if you don't like my name you should see my full tilt poker name. It's all in fun you uptight asshole. Goodbye, good luck, up yours, and do not respond.
wow, damn i'm a dumbass lol, i posted my last msg after being up for way to long and can not believe i confused MCAT'S with LSAT's lol especially since i have 2 MCAT study guides at my home. anesthesiology field is boring to me. plus with the CRNA boom they are starting to take the job market away from the true Doc's...atleast in the midwest..
lmao.. for the socalled big shot beandog54(nice name for a (non weak ass) these cars you are making fun of have more money under the hood that your lame 7 series... and by the way, This isn't an uneducated response. Try Radiology Director bringing in 6 figures. I think this might be the first comment I have ever left on here. Just to let you know.. you need to play lawyer a little better, cause some bigshot lawdog wouldn't waste his time talking up his bmw.
Braggadocio was not my intention for the comments i posted...and who said anything about law? MCAT and LSAT are 2 different things my friend. And yes i did take the time out to search this car after a heated debate with my good friend (Tc Owner) Radiology not bad...but anesthesiology is better
Any car can be made to run fast. The difference is that the scion TC does it with style. The glass roof injects so much fun into the equation while you're blowing the doors off some under powered honda piece of crap!!!
i dont get it, wat is so bad about the tC?? likewise any other vehicle, if its modded correctly, it will push out good results. by the way, purepnoy, the civic si come stock with more power and more tuned for speed, wats the big deal?? thats like a 350Z braggin on ur lil ride.
well one thing the scion tc is cheaper than the Civic Si and 350z, and it's just as easy to make a TC fast as a Civic Si is. Plus, why not try something different instead of what all of the other guys are doing(ie; wrx,civic si,350z,mustang gt,rx8). That's just no fun, you know?
I don't like the way they sound, the way they look, and all the little fags who drive 'em. It's crotch rocket vs harley--Just like Tc vs American muscle is no comparison. Sure you can make them fast but they lack style and history
so when civics, rsx, and all other vehicles first came into the market, did they have history?? dude, go back to school and educate yourself with logic. cuz you are lacking intelligence really bad and anyone who listens to you, much less supports you is a f@#king moron.
Intelligence I have mate and a lot more than you. Try UCLA just scored a 46 on the MCAT--I don't have much time to fek around with weak ass cars like this one when i'm driving my 7 series biotch!!! you uneducated blue collar loser
for a guy who brags about driving a 7 series and go to UCLA.. u certainly made time to view the video, leave a comment, and still can't stype intelligently. i have to say, that's very ironic my friend. you done yet??
If i can recall it was you who cast the first stone so don't be offended if i snap back. Anywho enjoy your days i am finished wasting my time with you. I'm sure sport wood to fast and the furious everytime you see it on tv. You can die in a car fire for all care--good riddance
In my personal opinion... Tc's are garbage, but you have to know how to hook 'em up right! But that is how you hook up a Tc. Nice work to whoever owns that car!
That car is cheaper and faster than most American Muscle cars that are at a decend price range, and it isn't all about American Muscle. That TC is really nice and fast, should show more respect torwards it. Don't need to be an ass.
Does anybody know the difference in FT is One Second??

In conclusion, unless you have access to as much capital as Chris Rado or have Rado's driving skills, a tC is NOT a good platform to work on. Just take a look at how much money you need just to get to 12's! Hell, evo's can do that with a couple thousand....
jaeminseo 2 years ago
In conclusion, your argument makes no sense. One "look at how much money you need to get to 12s".....dude, the car in this video is running a stock motor. It just has a turbo kit bolted on, nothing special. There are 12sec tC's using a stock motor, you sound as if they dumped money into building the motor and stuff. Then you mention an Evo needing a couple of thousand....LOL...how much does an Evo cost OVER a tC to begin with? So it's not a couple of thousand comparison.
rhythmnsmoke 2 years ago
Okay, so a turbo kit is 5K. Let's ignore the race gas and all the other likely bolt-ons that he has. Evo's need 1K or 2K to get to 12's and have AWD stock. But you ARE right about the base price difference of 15K or so but if you're really into motorsports, then most people have no problem buying used =P
jaeminseo 2 years ago
And if you are really into the car you bought....You don't care what amount of money you spent on it to reach whatever goal it is you want to achieve. That's the point you are missing. I love my tC. I wanted to make it fast and I did. Price wars are irrelevant. I have a 350z and I have a boosted/track building tC.
rhythmnsmoke 2 years ago
And yes you can ignore the race gas ans what not on this car, cause that same time can be done with pump gas. This car was around before the aftermarket took off for the tC. There are better applications out there now that will get you to those times without race gas.
rhythmnsmoke 2 years ago
A stock Evo will get walked on by a basic bolted on turbo kit Scion tC, I should know, I have vids of me doing it. A tC on 9-10lbs of boost is going to put you at 300whp/300+wtq depending on the turbo. That's going to be way to much for an Evo, STI, 350z, etc...to handle. They are lighter than those cars to begin with, and giving them the power behind it = winning races. Is FWD better than AWD, of course not. Not what I'm saying . I'm saying drivetrain means nothing when you are faster.
rhythmnsmoke 2 years ago
Depends on what year evo, what bolt-ons are attached, turbo size, type of gas, etc. "Basic bolt-ons" is far too vague...
It depends on what kind of race...around a track an evo/sti/Z will do better than the tC. In drag, it sounds to be a driver's battle, because although the tC would have a much better power-to-weight ratio, the evo/sti has AWD =P
BUT it's all about domestic V8 man...honestly I'm not an import guy, I just have some respect for some of em.
jaeminseo 2 years ago
I said stock Evo, and I was referring to an Evo 9. I have video of me pulling on an Evo 9 MR version. I was not on some high boost level either, only pushing 9lbs. The Evo would need to be modded like I mentioned. Again, you are being to general on top of that. If I have better tires on my tC and am a better driver than the Evo guy around my local Road track, how you figure he is going to out lap me? Let me guess, because he's AWD right? Takes more than drivetrain to go fast.

widowedeight 2 years ago
well it looks like you wrote "Whats it run on pump gas?" ......
ragnotgizmo 2 years ago
yeah i did.... "whats it run on pump gas" as in how fast of a 1/4 mile while on pump gas.... maybe you don't know this but saying "whats it run" is just like saying "what does it run"..... english is a nice language try and learn it
widowedeight 2 years ago 3
Does it really matter when there are vids of tC's running mid 12's on pump gas only? And tC's making 500whp on only pump gas or 550whp on pump gas and 50/50 meth for safety.
rhythmnsmoke 2 years ago
jesus crist i just wanna know what this car runs on pump gas why is everyone making this so hard? i don't care if it only makes 7whp or 49383948whp i just want to know if you take the higher octane fuel out of the fucking car, what does it run?
widowedeight 2 years ago
Jesus crist, all I did was ask what difference does it make? Because there are some making the same and some making more on pump gas than this car did. Kinda like...."who cares". You will never know what "this" particular tC runs on less than 103 because it's not around anymore. Video is years old, and the company behind that car turned to shady practices.
rhythmnsmoke 2 years ago
i asked cause i'm trying to figure out if it is worth running high octance gas just so i can run my goal or if i should just man up and get more boltons
widowedeight 2 years ago
I wouldn't consider 103 oct to be "high". I can get 110 at the pump. Most gas stations where I live have 93 oct as premium, and one Gas station has 110 race gas on pump. I imagine you are speaking along the lines of putting race gas in and tuning the car for it right? Cause just throwing race gas in there is not going to be nearly as beneficial as if you tuned it for the specific octane.
rhythmnsmoke 2 years ago
yeah i was talking about higher than 103 and tuning it for it cause i live within 30 min of 2 dif tracks and 3 different airportsn
widowedeight 2 years ago
Yeah, you could gain as much as 100whp from race gas. You can gain just as much for cheaper though by running methanol injection.
rhythmnsmoke 2 years ago
Get 2 tunes - one for pump and one for race gas. BUT, boltons is always better than race gas imho. Race gas IS worth it, but boltons are worth more =P
