Yea and thats kinda what I was expecting. Believe me, I would much rather have a nice clean leather interior vs a cloth one any day of the week. Audi is pure luxury and honda is well, just a honda...[:'(]

+111 haha, SIG'd!
and one thing ive noticed, even though i only have exaust, clutch, LWFW, and chip, on the freeway, 70 +, our cars can take wayy more cars than we can take on normal road speeds. im assuming its due to how our engines produce wayyy more torque than msot for their displacement and at much lower RPM's.

You need some salsa with your chips to make things spicier.

the tC is actually a 2.4L 16v, which makes it nice when you throw a big turbo on it, plust its a really stong block so it can hold the psi, and from what i researched there isnt' really any chip that will increase power like the audi chips, here is a pic of a turbo setup that i want to do one day, http://www.dragtimes.com/images/9071-2005-Scion-tC.jpg
in response to mrvuml, yeah i'm in boulder, and i went to RS Motorsports in Arvada, its like 20 min away, they did a great job and kenw what they were doing. their number is (303)432-8989 give them a call and set up an appointment.

So I've been told how a chip makes your car feel soo much different and how slow it is stock. Now, with a chip what kinds of cars will I be faster than? 330i? WRX?

the fake leather is nice though as it doesn't wear and you don't have to take care of it like real leather.

Sorry to ressurrect a month and a half old thread. (adderoll is keeping me awake) But i'd say my car is now decently quick with the apr stage 1 chip, stage 3 clutch/ 12lb lw flywheel, N75J, bailey dv, 3' test pipe, stock mufflers deleted with a straight through magnaflow in place, and an aem filter with custom intake heatshield. I went to the track before I got the heatshield and clutch/fw and ran a 15.08@93mph (in that ball park) with my stock clutch slipping like hell and not catching well at all. I would def. say I'm in the mid 14s now after the new clutch/fw and intake shield. It launches like crazy from a dig and my 0-60 is near 5.8.
Although its quick, its too slow for my taste so I'm going BT, but I thought I would share what I got out of my k03 without pushing it to the limit.
