|
|
We had a Scion TC in our shop a few weeks ago with a blown engine, so now we got this spare TC engine around... so what better thing to do with it then make a turbo manifold for it?! We just started on it not long ago but well post updates as it progresses, shouldn't take very long to complete.... enjoy!
