Yes, I'll post the f'n map eventually.

get friendly with your local muffler shop.

they're already set up to do this for you.

Going back to my list of crap we need...

Quote:

1. Some exposure
2. More willing buyers
3. A viable piggyback tuning option
4. A formula and/or bolt on kit for reliable boost
5. Cheaper, more available upgrades geared toward 4: pistons, cams, head gasket, intake manifolds etc etc

I'm trying to work on the exposure end of things as best I can, but Garm is gonna take care of that soon methinks. Either way, we need 5 or 10 people to step up and say "I'm building a kit." It can be done.

Its the only thing that we know of ATM that works short of a standalone. Yes, I would have bought it.

The E-manage blue may end up being the solution anyway. I called my tuner today, once the money tree grows a few more leaves I'm going to see what we can do.

and i think this thread has now turned to shit, we're discussing shiny stuff.

PETERPOOP · 04-25-2009, 04:05 PM

yes, you have been trying very hard to prove a moot point.

you like spending money on shiney stuff because you're too scared to step outside your comfort zone and try something new.

enjoy your car that's now almost as quick as a stock scion tC lmfao

ChinoCharles · 04-25-2009, 04:07 PM

LOL Tamago.

I wasn't implying used... turbo, sure, but if you buy a 14b new its your own damn fault. There are numerous shops in Ohio where I could walk in with a beat 14b and exchange it for a rebuilt one. Do you know how many DSM owners make it paycheck to paycheck doing that?

The rest of it isn't all that expensive. Most expensive part is the manifold, and you won't find one used.

i have one, $75 shipped

ChinoCharles · 04-25-2009, 04:07 PM

Peter, you haven't proven anything other than the fact that you're touchy about buying an overpriced supercharger.

It isn't out of hand. Just don't take crap personally and we can have a good old time arguing. This is what car forums are all about.

ChinoCharles · 04-25-2009, 04:08 PM

OK, you'll find 1.

$75 is a ridiculously good deal BTW.

kurokoma-kun · 04-25-2009, 04:16 PM

ahh nice, at last we have arrived at the pointless bickering, vicious infighting and drama-queenery stage... does this mean we are a "real" car community now?

nope, just a car specific forum.. they're all like this.

ChinoCharles · 04-25-2009, 04:13 PM

... wait, the xA manifold fits the Yaris?

I retract my previous statement, they're probably all over Scionlife.

Tamago · 04-25-2009, 04:15 PM

yup, same bolt pattern..

no, it's not bolted down, but dimensionally it was VERY close
