look up tony the tiger on toyotanation.com. He twincharged a v-6 camry and it's a beast! I highly doubt the kid you know has the knowhow or money to twincharge his Celica but I would like to see it done.

This is a twincharged gen6:

It involves a lot of custom piping to get it running right. The supercharger is located beneath the alternator and not visible on this picture.



I doubt it will fit a gen 7 without some major modifications

Its a great setup, as the supercharger gives a lot of low end torgue, and when it hits its top, the turbo takes over.

Smaay, youve done a lot! You need to start posting more pictures of your cars on here and c-tech. I don't think people really realize the work you have put into your cars.

the grey Lotus belongs to a guy named Frank, his name on the internet is Ronin, and yes thats the car im talking about. I built the engine after a shop did a poor job on it and my partner in crime fabbed up the S/C turbo system.

no doubt, that thing was badasss, i expected it to be louder tho. i guess you would have to hear it as its driving and going thru the gears vs at a idle and slight rev. it looked realy nice tho, you guys did a great job. it must put down some crazy numbers i would think

[Smaay]

it puts down almost 500HP, i dont think he broke that threshold like my 7th gen making 545. the car is fairly loud but thre is alot of muffler under there, he drives this car every weekend on the streets through the canyons.

And now it looks like he is going to be in the May issue of Dsport. Fvck man i have been trying to get in Dsport for 2 years!
