Descendant Turbo Kit: Scion xB 2008 - 2012 (xB2)


I found that ^. it says it is a bolt on turbo kit? is it truely? or is there another better bolt on turbo kit? I want a turbo in my car like people in **** want ice water. Idk if its small boost or ne thing i just want a turboed car. So does the xb have a true bolt on turbo? is the turbo i found safe? does it still need tuned?

Thats the best one. There is a cheapy kit on Ebay for much less but ya get what you pay for. It'll cost around $5k after labor and maybe around $7k-$8k to upgrade all of the other components to keep the turbo worth it.
For around $8k get something like this....

Nissan : Sentra Spec V Nissan : Sentra Spec V | eBay

I'd say throw a CAI, rear sway and maybe an exhaust and use it as the point A to point B car. Then buy something on Ebay that someone invested $10k on and selling it for half that.

Yes Descendant/world-Motorsports is the best around for the Xb as far as turbo kits go. If you buy the full bolt and go kit it is bolt and go but the map on the f/ic is only to get you to the tuner not to drive on the streets. If you want to do the install your self Descendant has made a video to help you with install to find it just Google Descendant turbo diy install. FYI I don't have a turbo but have done a ton of research on the Descendant kit.

If I was going to do a turbo, that's what Id go with and Id probably just spend the money and have Desendant install it and tune it, then basically tell me what I need to do to keep it happy.
