Yeah a leaf blower is ghetto, but it works, plus you're talking what up to four psi of boost, IMO it would still sound funny going down the road but the fact is something so practical will give you horsepower and in the Celica that's difficult to do. I remember an episode of Mythbusters where they made a sealed container and used a leaf blower to mimic the pressure inside a skyscraper and it built about 4-5 psi so a quility blower could easily mimic the effect of a supercharger or turbo, only thing is having to relieve the pressure when the throttle is closed and build it back up when the throttle opens again.
