yes the kit comes with stickers, but why advertise? I used to have a supercharged tc and if the OP drives the car on his sig, he would've been better off saving his gas, I embarrased a few unsuspecting people back in the day.

I agree with you especially if it turned out to be manual, and I don't know the weight difference but if the tC is significantly lighter, I'd say it'd be drivers race at the least

There is a Scion TC that I wanted to race a while back. He had a license plate that begged for a race, but I never got the chance. I think he lived in my old neigborhood. Anyhow, when I was dropping my motor off to get worked on at the shop, I saw the car in there. He was getting a turbo kit installed. Hopefully I'll meet him on the street one day. It should be fun.

Sorry but until the S197 4.0 sixxer came out, Mustang sixxers were far from respectable. I'd say 85% of the cars on the road could beat it. Are you one of those that thinks just because something has 4cyl that it's slower than a 6cyl?
I can name off the top of my head several NA 4cyl's that would rape a pre S197 sixxer..........Sentra SE-R & SE-R Spec V, Ford Focus ZX3 SVT, Acura RSX & RSX Type S, Toyota Celica GT & GTS...........................Shall I go on?
So I think it's clear it's very viable that a Scion TC could definitely beat a New Edge sixxer. Sorry to burst your bubble!

I do see alot of scions that think they are all tuff sh*t and I don't understand it. They always go buzzing around and want to race all the time. I work with someone who has one and he thinks that he can beat my other friends EVOIX.....I just ask him what he's smoking...ha and usually he tells me[8D]
But I think it is the mentallity, if you have never driven a "fast" car, then you really don't know what fast is, and if they bought that car and they are proud of it, then I guess they don't know any better. Probably watched alot of the fast and the furious but hey, at least the first one was good;) I don't think that they are all retarded, I think alot of them are just ignorant.

whats worse? reving at someone and not launching for a race or accidently racing a grandma?
Today right before the light to my street I was at the light, next to me was an old sedan with a 70+ year old lady in it.. im looking around, light turns green, i put my foot down a bit, (a really light touch) but for some reason I peeled out.. even though its dry.. I think.. crap.. everyone is gonna think mustang GTs are slow if I peel out and barely inch ahead.. so I step on it a bit, get the pedal 1/2 down anyway.... then I realize the people around me probably thought I was an idiot for racing a grandma in a sedan (didn't even look to see what type).. but I still feel like no matter what i had done the other people around me woulda thought I was retarded.. ehh.. they could be right...

hmm nice list.. however are you aware that the Challenger first off isn't even on the road yet, and they're supposedly not even releasing a V6 model yet? Not to mention, was the last V6 Ferrari made in the last 15 years??
There are plenty of V6 "sports cars" out there... and you forgot Porsche. But, a V6 Mustang isn't really a sports car, technically neither is a V8.. they're sports coupes, but that's besides the point... you don't buy a v6 Mustang/Camaro/Charger/Challenger to go fast.. and if you do - that's your own dumass fault. It doesn't make it less of a Mustang (the fact that it's a V6), but you just have to know your place.
DISCLAIMER: This doesn't apply to V6's that run 400rwhp. There is always the exception to the rule!

xxkazp3rxx, well said.
i did get the porsche in there though. :D
and i do agree you don't buy the smaller displacement v6 to go fast, more for practicality. and that one needs to know there place. which is why I don't go prancing around saying my car is the fastest thing out there - but it isn't the slowest, that's for sure! Ford's come a long way with the v6 engines, and as much as many would not like to admit it, I think that's where the majority of newer technology will be pumped into the way oil prices are going. Hell, Japan's got smaller displacement engines tweaked for longevity and reliability! At some point America will start demanding the same - if a lot aren't already starting to do so. Don't get me wrong, no matter what, I will want to own at least ONE crazyass GT in my lifetime.
again though, like you said, just because it's a v6 doesn't make it any less of a mustang. sounds fair enough to me [8D]

I hate rice too, but you sound like your making excuses. You missed a shift regardless of when the Scion took-off, soooooo you probably would have lost anyway.

Well this is going back to what you had originally said. Not the last like 200 postings (not that i'm saying anyone is wrong). But you said "now theres some guy in a fricken Scion tC thinking he's all big and bad". I have personally seen dumb asses like that. One of the guys at my work used to have a 99 Escort ZX2 that he had put an exhaust, intake andheaders on. Plus some visual effects like rims. He had also lowered it 2in. One day he said that he had beaten a "2002 style" (so not sure what year but he said it was the same body style as mine) Mustang GT. Everybody said that he was full of **** and we still don't believe him to this day. Unfortunately I ended up buying my GT at the same time he totaled his Escort, so I never got to show just how full of **** he was. So just because it "seems like he beat you", even if he does go to his buddies and brag, doesn't mean everybody believes him.
