Product?
An Axle Back Exhaust System.

The DME Axle back echaust system for the the Scion xA and xB(’04-06) offers a less restrictive exhaust passage for better performance. Its mandrel-bent piping as well to make sure it maximizes air flow. DME fabricates each system from 100% stainless steel to make sure it stands the weather, rocks and all other little road hazards that kick up while your beating the streets. Stainless Steel = Strength, Beauty and Integrity. Each system that they make has a deeper tone to insure a nice sound throughout the entire RPM range. With it being a bolt on application, installation is a breeze as it connects right to factory piping. Supplied with a silencer incase theres those days your havin a head ache or if your coming home from the track late that day and you want to be nice to your neighbors in the middle of the night lol. All the needed hardware comes with it also, so anybody can install it! At A decent price of $299.99 its not bad for this kind of modification!

thanks for coming by, have a great weekend and ill see you monday!

Welcome Everybody to another edition of VizX’s The Mod Shop, I Am VizX coming at you today with something thats a very very important part of your cold air intake. This product is called an air bypass valve. The Air Bypass Valve virtually eliminates the chance of hydro-lock should the filter of your AEM Cold Air intake somehow gets submerged in water. On most systems, the valve installs along the upper portion of the inlet pipe and shuts down induction at the filter when it becomes submerged, rerouting the air to keep water out and air flowing in.

You can get this bypass for your AEM Intake HERE for between $50.00 – $60.00

Well thats it for the mod shop this week! Keepin it short and sweet for you ya know. I hope you enjoyed your time! Don’t forget about getting your hands on Flytoyz decals for your ride! Spread The Word, Flytoyz is the truth!

Ill see you monday on the automotive corner!

I cant believe this!! One of the largest tuning companies takes a dive!! This is insane, I never thought I would see this company go down.

“The market for aftermarket parts from Japan has been declining for well over five years, due in part to decreased demand both at home and abroad and the rising rates of Chinese knock-offs and other inexpensive (and dubiously built) components.

Today, one of the world’s largest performance parts companies, known as Trust in Japan and Greddy here in the States, declared bankruptcy. According to various reports, Trust is approximately $60 million in debt and, after reporting a serious decline in sales since February 2008 and amassing $43 million in loan payments, filed for bankruptcy in Tokyo District Court.

Trust has been around since 1976, employs almost 200 workers and had been dealing in everything from CARB-legal exhausts to turbo systems when Greddy Performance Products was founded in the U.S. in 1994. There are several firms that will step up to fill the need of enthusiasts, assuming that Trust doesn’t try to reorganize, but with the aftermarket industry down overall, we suspect this won’t be the last time we’ll hear about a large tuner going under.”

1 word. WOW!
