Default street legal forced induction?

im looking into forced induction and i know that the supercharger (when/if it comes out for the 2007 model tc) is street legal but what are my other options? I know that the greddy kit isnt as it removes the cat and is meant for off road use only... so what are my other options? any other kits? turbonetics? do any of you guys know?

i'm looking at the blitz compressor, for my egg. I dunno if they make the same thing for the tC, or if it's carb legal. Keeping an eye out for s/l f/i tho.

your in Cali so nothing is legal especially F/I... and Blitz doesnt make any type of F/I for the tC because its not avaliable in Japan...

lol, its true though:

exhaust? illegal cuz its too loud
intake? illegal cuz it pollutes more
HIDS? illegal cuz it blinds people
Tein sTechs? illegal cuz it too low

and the list goes on, although some of them do apply to other "metro" cities/states...

there are plenty of legal exhausts, intakes, not so much, and the other 2 are true.

well i know that legally the trd supercharger is in the green but i have no idea when that might be available... ive read that it's taking so long because trd is doing more r&d to fixing the problems that surfaced in the 05-06 models... ive also read on here that theyre discontinuing it altogether... anyone? clues? i'd love to go turbo again cause i loved the performance (along with the atmospheric BOV haha) but id rather not drive on eggshells and be afraid of police officers getting me for fixing tickets... a large intercooler is pretty hard to miss (uninstalling a turbo kit for highway patrol inspection is not fun)... just looking for a little more legal zip in my daily driven tc...

but like tint on the front windows, that's a moving violation, so it's legal to do it if you're stopped.
