Im really new to all the power stuff but the turbo group buy thread peaked muy interest, So i had a quick question, we all know that the turbos need to rev up before they take full effect, or buy a smaller one for lower end power but would something like this help get to lower en power.

E-ram or would something like this help; Turnbonator

I will be the first to flame myselft JIC (just in case) " NO!, If it did then everybody would have one along with their turbos!, IDIOT"

electric superchargers seem to be growing a number of producers. from everything i have read on just about all types they basicly act just as say having a nitrous system except you dont have to "refill" them. and of course they dont exactly produce the numbers of a small setup. I look at it like if i want a turbo or supercharger then i will get one. Not one of these low cost "we produce power for cheap" things that only runs at wot. turbo's and superchargers produce power even when not at wot from eery experience i have had. sure giving it the gun will rocket you but you still make power all the time. I say get a turbo if you want. Im waiting on trd to create a supercharger for the 05 Taco.

Why is everyone worried about turbo lag??? It's NOT that bad. Unless you have a super HUGE turbo, turbo lag is NOTHING. Especially for a daily driven vehicle. If you have a race car then that's a whole different story.

real electric superchargers are good, not those fake connect to intake ones, i mean ones that run off ya crank. not many cars have em, and theyre mainly for emmisions/low end/eco etc etc

They have them for the Tiburon.

a super charger would be nice, but unfortunatly TRD does not offer one for the '02 Camry 4cyl, so i must find other ways to make boost.

I'm starting of with an IS Injen Intake I found online for about $177 + S&H

Edit:

Personally im not worried about the lag, B/C hey i don't got anything on my car, but i guess it was more of a thought than a question, for those have one.
