Exclamation supercharging a 3.3L

I have a 3MZ in my 04 camry and i was thinking about throwing one of the superchargers for the 01 camry in it and seing if i can make it work. i believe the intake should match up to the engine and if not i can bore it out a bit to make it fit. now, i know that the electronic boost control wont work cause the electronics are most likely different for this car than the 01.
my friend suggested that i use one of the greddy piggyback fuel managers to increase the fuel for the extra air that is going to be comming in so i dont starve the engine.
i was wondering if anybody could think of some other things i might need to think about before i try and make this fit on my car, so i dont buy a supercharger and then have to turn around and sell it. any help is appreciated
thanks

The main problem is that your engine uses dual throttle bodies. The supercharger is meant for the 1mz before they introduced vvti. Which uses a single throttle body.

the new vvti has a single throttle body, the dual throttle bodies was on the highlander with vvti (that i know of, cause my dad has one). my 03 3.0 w/ vvti had a single throttle body and my 3.3 has a single one too

Hey you're right. I didn't know they changed back to one throttle body.
