Matrix XRS Forced Induction

I am thinking about getting one of these and I was wondering if the TRD supercharger is compatable with the XRS. If not, any XRS turbo kits? I am aware of the high compression ratio and such. So does anyone make low compression pistons (not camshafts sorry) for forced induction. If neither of these work, I don't really see how one could get much more out of an engine that high output cheaply. Any info would be much appreciated. thanks

www.matrixowners.com has a section specifically for forced induction.

i personally am thinking to get a small turbo for my trix, but that is a long ways off. from what i have heard so far, the 2zz is not really the best motor to turbo because it is already the high compression. my thought on this is to get a turbo that will provide boost from about 3000 to 6000 rpm. this is not the highest compression area, so that should help to give me more of a run up to the lift.

you could use the trd SC instead of turbo if you want to as well.

regarding the camshafts, i couldnt help you on that part.
