Trd made a supercharger for the tc but having too many problems they discontinued it... The tc is a nice looking car when it first came and its a bargain with so many features for 16G's, so most buyers are teens and they start to fix it that became an icon... Tc is purely made for DD with a cool sunroof but never drive them and be a douche bag coz its LAME... We just have to wait for the FT-86.

My 08 tC used to have a built long block GT35R AEM EMS the works made 416whp with the Twin Disc Clutch and Limited Slip Installed, but like building any FWD car that isnt made for 25+ psi of boost (oops haha) you loose any and all reliability quickly, I guess you could say the only plus side of doing all that is I became one of the "poster boys" for Dezod Motorsports. Now I have the 05 MR for my fun/weekend warrior and my STi for my DD because some dumb sh*t was stupid enough to buy my fully built boosted tC for 36k. None the less the tC is a great car for DD definetly going to agree on that one. They have decent sound, steering, and ride comfort especially IMO for roadtrips too.

My wife works for Kia and we get a company lease car for under $300 a month and unlimited miles. We do not pay registration, maintenance, or insurance on the car, just gas and the lease cost. Every year she gets a new car, right now we have a Forte Sedan (wanted the Koup) but we turn it in soon and my wife wants the Forte 5 door SX (2.4L World Engine). That is the car we take everywhere so I can keep miles down on the purchased cars, so I don't think I will see more than 10K a year on the Ralliart.

I have seen some goofy looking Scions. But I have also seen some hella clean scions. And like stated above, Toyota does make some good products for their cars. And the aftermarket parts are pretty good. I have seen some 35r turbo'd scions kick something serious. But damn, if your going to 3m some parts on your car, make sure they are f'ing straight lol.
