Check this out guys. Since my LS has been in the performance shop longer then I actually had it in my garage, I was playing with my econobox a little bit. Built a little frankenstein of a sound system from spare parts in my garage and won world finals in car sound with it. That was almost a year ago and this article have just come out today.

You played with your econobox a "little"? Now there's an understatement if I ever heard one! Beautiful tC by the way.

 

Nice car. Its a shamed I didn't get to listen to your car back when RJ had that meet at his house. I wanted to listen but everyone lined up before I did Supposedly your horns are awesome

I feel stupid for selling my Image Dynamics CD3Ultra. Could have potential

 

Congrats. I've always liked the scion line up.

 

Wow. That's a very, very, very long list of mods you've done to the car.


How many man hours do you think you've put into the Scion?

 

Congrats on the article. You should be proud,
?? on mods, what whp are you putting down? what boost, did you have to do the headgasket?

 

Congrats man!!!!

 

Congratulations

 

Still tinkering in sound huh... Awesome bro! Congrats

 

Congratz!

 

i love the ride bu u linked to the same magazine page 3 times

 

Thanks guys. Fixed the links. there were actually 3 pages.

I have not dynoed the car yet since the turbo setup is incomplete. I still need an intercooler andbigger injectors. As of now it should be around 220-240fwhp...it is a quick car and it is a blast to drive with my suspension setup. Motor is all stock running at 6psi right now. I am sure if I tune it right, I can put down same kind of power with 4 psi (others do).
I am still playing around wih audio because I can do it better then anything else in cars. I have no time to lean new things

GSteg: There is always next time. I'll have this same setup for a while.

 

CONGRATULATIONS!! Awesome work

 

damn that's very nice man, congrats!

it's really funny that your REAL show car (supposedly) has hardly seen the light. i most definitely wanna see that one

 

Congratulations!!!

That is just amazing - the level of detail and amount of work put into your car's audio system (as well as other mods you did ofcourse to the rest of the car).
