The Evolution....

So within the last few years this has been a collection of the cars i've owned. Once you go boosted, you ain't never wanna go back to NA.

2005 Scion tC Turbocharged
Purchased vehicle brand new, completely stock. After about 20k invested, this was was final outcome:


2008 Chevrolet Cobalt SS Turbocharged
Only owned for a year before being totaled...


2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution 9 MR
Current vehicle project...hehe


All pictures taken at the same location.

Haha... dude. Go re-read the OP. There is nothing in there that leads you to believe he doesn't still have the Scion.

ASSUMPTION FAIL!

why do I sense this is promoting ss fanboi to speak up?


Also, op I HATE scions, but that is a very nice tc. Good job. Invest 2k into your EVO and you will be mid to low 11's.

Unfortunately I would have never gotten rid of my scion, except where I live cops don't have a whole lot to do. So I was ticketed and sent to the state ref. After that, i kept getting pulled over by the same cop. Decided it was time to move on...

The scion was pushing around 315whp. Boost was only at 8.5psi. Was gunna keep working on it, but like i said, cops made it difficult. Keep in mind, there was a lot more than performance done to the car.

Ricer Scion. Tacky Cobalt.

Nice Evo though. Don't turn the Evo into the other two monstrosities.

Exposed carbon fiber hasn't been cool since 2005. People are living in the past with styling on this site. No ones looking towards the future styling.

I guess this would be your personal opinion, as most cars still in the in street/show scene have exposed Carbon Fiber. The scene right now basically requires widebodys.
