And you'd still be driving an avalon. One that handles worse than stock because of the rediculous task for the front wheels of harnessing 350+ hp AND steering the car.

I'll pass.

Why wouldnt the extra power help at lower speeds? My TRD supercharged Camry was fun from the lower range to the upper. If anything it was more fun at lower speeds due to the almost instant power that the supercharger provided.

Some stiffer suspension and wide sticky tyres might be needed when hillclimbing, imagine the understeer on a supercharged V6 FWD when powering out of corners....

solution?

Lexus IS300 supercharged. mmmmmm..... rear wheel drive and still a toyota!

My front tires already spin in first gear in the upper RPM's as it is. Without a wheel upgrade, it would just be worse with a supercharger.

All stock for now, I have 80lbs of bass in the trunk which doesn't help my weight distribution. And I'm thinking that some extra rubber on the ground would be all I need, supercharger or no supercharger.
