TRD Supercharger???

**matt0689** · 12-20-2004, 06:30 PM

Does anyone know of the 1.8 Liter TRD Supercharger being used on a celica. The only applications I have seen were on the Matrix or for the Corolla. But I figured since it works for the 1ZZ engine then it must work for the Celica. But is says peak horsepower gain is 40hp. I am only exploring this idea because I have not noticed any turbos for the GT only for the GTS. But Im still disappointed at the fact that it only offers 40 hp gain.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

lots of people have used it.. it works and a smaller pully can help ring it up higher

So I guess it can be used on the celica even though they only suggest the Corolla or Matrix. The good thing is it isnt that expensive compared to most.

the only reason why it doesnt show an application for the celica is because you need to buy a new hood that will clear the SC

But with the Corolla and Matrix it comes with an installation kit. Does that include an ECU to tune up the supercharger? Is the Matrix Engine set up similar to the celica? I saw the manual for installation and it showed cutting the dress-up plates to make the supercharger fit right? But with the smaller pulley what else could be done to make the turbocharger run faster and what more gain would be achieved through those modifications?

If you want a turbo, you want http://www.c2power.com/ They're the real deal.

Proof?
