    You Yanks seem to under-estimate Scion tCs. In other countries, the tC is the car of choice for road-racing, behind the MX5 Miatas. Honda cars come in 4th or 5th.

      false. it is the 2.5 previous gen 1 tc's had the 2.4 now they all come with 2.5. the car with springs & Sways makes a hell of a difference and of course uprated tires and rims make a bit of difference too

      Dash Equal Dash I can attest to the engine management tuning no go. Had one of the most powerful piggybacks, the GReddy Ultimate, on my 2005 tC (2AZ-FE) with the TRD S/C pulling 15 PSI and all the supporting mods. One of the nest tuners, Kenny Tran could not get the engine to budge at all. The Toyota ECM either ignores or quickly alters any inputs by the GReddy. Car ran like crap over what it did at 9.5 PSI. Removed the GReddy and went straight stock ECM with the TRD maps. Car does nothing but spin the wheels with the stock diff and Nitto Invos. Car runs normal otherwise. Had Kenny do a full engine build but got injured and out of a job before I could buy a full stand alone. The tC is tuneable in the suspension but it lacks in off the shelf components so some mods have to be handmade if looking to do serious track duty. All in all, it was a kick arse car that car you quite a lot for less than $17K and had no equal in comparison back in 2005-2006.
