I think import tuner magazine did somewhat of a walk through. I came across something when I was looking around on google the other night.

take a visit to the tC forced induction forums..

the only supercharger available is the TRD one, which makes less power than any turbo out there (unless you modify it) but retains your factory warranty (...unless you modify it).

there are various turbo companies. stage 0, 1, and 2 are invalid terms. ZPI is no longer around. some companies to consider are Dezod and TurboToyotas. do a search on them and you'll find all the info you need.

hope this helps.
