Here is my TRD/AIT hood that allows me to fit the TRD supercharger. I am gonna see if TRD releases the ecu for the celica but if not im gonna use emanage to use the supercharger.

oh wow...that look sweet dude...way to be different with the supercharger rather than a Turbo...and If I were you I'd go ahead and get the emanage...it will be cheaper the the TRD ecu, and will also be more programmable

Thanks guys thumbsup No I dont have the supercharger yet. I emailed TRD to see if they are gonna release the ecu specifically for the celica but if they are not I am just gonna use emanage. I would rather use the TRD ecu just because of the warranty. I will keep you guys updated on what TRD says.

The TRD supercharger will add like 40 horsepower but what appeals to me is the power at all rpms. The reason I am going with the supercharger is because I am friends with a manager at Toyota. If anyone is interested in the hood email Edrick at jeda03@yahoo.com . He can get it shipped to you for 799 which is a bit pricey but the hood looks nice and you have to have it to fit the supercharger.

Im gonna leave it Carbon Fiber. ^Thats what I said about the price eek but I liked it and wanted the supercharger. Assuming a 40 horsepower gain, it will be 25 dollars each horsepower for the supercharger.

Yeah I am gonna get hood pins just in case. Thats my bro's car. He is the one who first got me into this. I remember when he got a TRD exhaust and I thought that was stupid to spend money on that. eek Wow things have changed.

i think the overall design is cool. but i dont like how the hoodscoop is sunk in. and it looks like water would just sit in there like a little bird bath or something. but overall i think its pimpin

you need to raise up the hood scoop to level with the bump on the hood or its doing nothing.

also I would put a reverse vent on the part of the hood that slopes downward onto the hood scoop, that would help with excavating hot air from the engine bay,

overall looks better than the one at sema

Here are some videos of a matrix with the supercharger. http://larry.neptune.com/
That matrix has the trd cai though. I am not gonna be using that because it blows out the cat or part of the exhaust and trd strongly says not to use it. It might not fit anyways. Enjoy.

watch number 13 SCXR vs. RSX towards the end. The sound of the supercharger with the Intake is great!

Just to keep everyone updated. I talked to TRD and I asked what the plans were for coming out with the ecu specifically for the celica. They told me that they were working on making the ecu as user-friendly as possible because it is not a simple bolt on like the matrix/corolla. He said to call back at the end of october.
