superchargers are kinda nice on s2000s since they rev to 9K...but not on yaris.
3500 and only 40 whp gain? NOS would be much more efficient. Though, the new Blitz Vitz superchager can be turned completely off..that's not bad for fuel efficiency, either.

Yeah, but you don't supercharge a car for fuel efficiency.
40whp gain sucks. Not worth the money.
