Second, you have more tuning capabilities because your extra power isn't dependent on your car hitting a certain RPM.
Actually, the guy who owns the xA that is being used to develop the kit moved to this after having a bolt-on supercharger and realized the supercharger had caused a bit of blow-by. Scary. He ended up having to buy brand new pistons and rings.
You could go turbo and internals on top of a setup like this for a Corvette-destroying Yaris. You're probably talking 10 grand worth of work, but who knows? Maybe we will see it one day.

you will actually spend $2500 for the itb's before saving up another $1000 and go for the proven turbo kit???
why would you do that? you can make your own itb's, of you can get the wiring figured out for less than that. why not get somebody to make a intake manifold and pair it with a bigger tb and go from there?
