TRD supercharger from Scion? - Toyota Yaris Forums

but this is 40whp on a car that makes 100whp on a good day, that's a 40% increase...

on a small displacement motor like the 1nzfe, i'd rather sacrifice 10hp to drive the blower, and make 40hp of it back, and keep the low end response and driveability for a car that is gutless down low when stock. its hard to find a turbo small enough to be driven by such a small motor, minimal turbo lag, yet still give decent gains in the top end.

sure you can run nitrous and get similar results, but what you don't get is everyday access to that power, and legally, i do not believe you are even allowed to drive a car with the nitrous hooked up.
