Default a car i recently built....

Just wanted to share this car I built not too long ago. Its a new special release xB2 That I Turbo'd, Slammed, Big Rims, Navi....the works....















...at only 5lbs of boost, the car was as quick as a stock sc monte...not bad for a 2.4

...and of course there is me hardwiring the aem fic and making it fit like stock


Not a chevy, but cool none the less.

The manifold was one of the nicest parts...manufactured by a friend of mine whotig weldedit by hand.



...this same friend MIGHT be making a set of jet coated 3800 stainless headers as well

Hi `Brandon,
That xB Turbo is Freak'in Sweeeeeeeet : )
I just posted in your other post & asked about the new ones : )
With the price of fuel in today's market, I think mod'in the four banger's
will increase. I drove a xB with the 2.4L, but it was an automatic & still
kicked out pretty good : ) The only `mod she did was audio & it rattles your brain : )
What do you think the estimated total cost of the one that you built would `be ?
Thanks again for sharing/posting...I love post like yours with pic's/details : )
Keep `up the super work....`Space

Im going to guess that car all said and done was close to 28k. Ya figure the car was about 19 because of the special eddition stuff, and the guy dropped a LOT of stuff into it. I work at a Scion dealer, and I am pretty well known within the community. Let me tell ya....these things are just gunna keep blowing up. Scion isnt goin anywhere any time soon
