For any of you who own a celica, I'd like to know if any of you guys know anything about the supercharger that TRD made for the GT. Is it worth investing in? I have a 2004 Celica GT and I'm considering doing some engine mods and the supercharger was the first thing that crossed my mind. If so, is there anything else I should do prior to installation? Thanks for your help!

 

depends on if you care about factory warranty and/or the level of performance you want to achieve (within reason, of course).

 

Well, I had hoped to stay under warranty and by going through TRD, that is made possible. I do want more power, but I'm gonna have to go small steps at a time. Nothing major for the time being.

 

well a supecharger would be considered something major imho

 

Ok, Ill say it since no one else has, should have gotten the gt-s, but anyways, i would do I/H/E and some sort of engine managment first, but if you want to stick with a warranty just whip out the trd book and credit card and have fun, TRD has some decent stuff

 

The TRD Supercharger is covered under the Toyota Manufacturers warranty, just as long as the supercharger is installed at a Toyota Dealership!

 

yeah, that's what i was talking about. unless you stick to what TRD USA prescribes, other aftermarket stuff may push the envelope to whether warranty will be honored.

 

well if ur going to put in a supercharger then u should make sure that ur compression ratio is 9:1 because if its not then u should get a turbo charger.....it wont really work all the way if its not

 

wtf??? that is absolute bullshit.

 

forced induction is forced induction, no matter if it's turbo or supercharger. and i'm sure you recomend nitrous in a all motor car.
