I've heard that a company from Florida, Toyomoto, that did do a few custom supercharger installs on an n/a (normally-aspirated/non-turbo) Mkiv Supras, with some success. Afaik (as far as I know), they never produced a full bolt-on kit for this application. Also afaik, the results were not 'earth-shattering' (eg. about 500rwhp or less). Although you'd have to build your own brackets, modify your crank pulley for a belt, and custom-bend/weld/etc. all of your own piping, there's no reason you couldn't do it. Please let us know if you decide to!

a cheep idea i heard about if you are running boost from a already turbocharged engine and want less lag when showing off or just the extra power to kick it quick up and down the road, is the electric turbo for any car or truck can be found at www.jcwhitney.com the big down fall is you can only use it for a certain time before the motor needs to cool.

To be honest, the last time I saw a product like this, it was little more than a leaf blower, and wouldn't have pushed enough air to even make a 6cyl 3L 2jz-gte idle faster lol...
