Question turbo vs supercharged

i realy love turbo... my last car was an fc.. but i upgraded to something with more reliability and power .. + not every one is a performance enthusiest w/ a ff toyota they are all about honda.. uni want to know if any one out there know's about a company or person who know's can turbo charge my car before im left to buy a trd supercharger wich may result in less power gain since i am running NOS from my intake cone to my manifold as a dry shot .. my ride is a corolla xrs 05...

There isn't a supercharger for the 05 XRS. Only the 03-04 Corolla CE, LE, and S have an available TRD supercharger. I've heard of successes using turbokits made for the Matrix XRS which has basically the same layout with very minor modifications. Turbo is the only way to go for you 2ZZGE'ers currently.

Turbocharging > supercharging

I would go with a custom turbo kit, but that's just me. How much do you have to spend? Are you willing to do any of the work yourself?
