If thats your scion than nice car man....
How does a turbo and a full exhaust constitute to a "highly modified car?" That's two mods.

The STi starts out with 140 more hp than a Scion (Scion has tC has 160 hp), a turbo, AWD, and it also has more mods than that Scion does.

Exactly. Quit acting like a bunch of fanboys. The STi simply got SMOKED by a $16,000 car with two mods.

Ya know, sometimes I wish people would quit making up excuses every single time an STi gets beat by something.

The turbo and all the supporting mods on a naturally aspirated car would constitute highly modified in my opinion.

I didn't see mention of any supporting mods. I saw mention of a turbo and an exhaust. You can get a turbo or supercharger kit straight from Toyota for the Scion tC, and there are no supporting mods included with that kit.

Typical. The excuses just keep coming. THE STI IS THE FASTEST CAR EVAAAAAAAAAAAAR! IT'S THE FASSSSSSSSTAR!

Ok, you're right, dude. The STi is the fastest thing on the face of the Earth. A cheaper car will NEVER beat an STi.

Some are forgetting that what constitutes as "highly moddified" for us (car enthusiasts) is completely different than what a novice might think!

where is there an excuse? every one is mearly stating that an n/a vehicle will not run properly with just a turbo installed, there are a lot of things involved with the switch.


ps, you are still a retard, and looks like it will stay that way!

News flash. An N/A car will run fine with a supercharger or turbo. Boost doesn't kill motors; detonation does. A buddy of mine has a 1998 TransAm that's running 9lbs of boost (with intercooler) and his car has over 130,000 miles on it. He's been doing it since his car had 20,000 miles on it.

Where's YOUR excuse for your WRONG answer?

PS, you really show your "intelligence" with all your name calling. They'd appreciate you over at NASIOC.
