[QUOTE=ritz]No this thread turned into shit when you said this:



No one ever stated that an LS1 was almighty compared to a tc. But you had to go say some shit like that.

I never compared my stock V8 to your stock car. I told you not to compare a 500HP boosted tc to a stock LS1 or SRT-4 which you blatantly did in the above quote.

And sure I'll run you, but this might pose a problem:



You're not boosting now, so please don't call me out.

I wish you luck on your quest and keep us updated. I do like Scion tC's and I'd like to see a boosted one in the area.

i was not comparing it to stock srt-4s or ls1s was not refering to all srt4s and ls1s for god sake if that is what i was doin than darrell mike or anyone with a race ls1 would be able to put me in my place i am jut sayin that four 5k over stock 500whp is very impressive to "ME"

If you would read the whole thread, you would see that the thread starter wants to know the naturally aspirated potential of the engine. Simply put, I don't think there is much at all.

It would make more sense for a "young enthusiast" who is on a budget to purchase a used car with an established aftermarket.

i believe he is referring to FI as in forced induction.

guys, just stop the arguing, it isn't worth it....i just made this thread for opinions on tc's overall, i wasn't trying to start yet another argument.

you are correct, sir.

i would own a turbo car if it came that way, i just don't see boosting a car that wasn't meant for it.

and honestly, if an srt4 wasn't what it is, a neon, i would look into one...no offense to srt4 owners, i just don't like 4 door cars or the styling of the car. or the fact that it is made by chrysler.

Oh, in that case, tC's suck. They're slow and ugly.
