Cool forced induction on the Scion xA

Hello everyone !!!!!!! New to the site and to the Scion, but not for long..lol.. :^)

I am in the process of gathering info on performance mods for the little bugger. I've been waiting do modify this car since I saw it last year at the LA IAS show.

Anyway, we already have a few people (sponsors) lined up to offer their services: exhaust, suspension, audio/video, etc. I am having trouble getting in touch with people that have forced induction, in production. I have already talked to Blitz last week, they said they are still doing testing on the computers compatability and don't have anything available yet.

I need to find a turbo company or s/c company that has a product available now, that wants exposure. Covers of mags, all the industry events, etc. Any help or contacts would be appreciated.

i don't think TRD makes a SC for it. it uses the echo engine i think. TRD is making a SC for the 2AZ-FE used in the tC and the camry 4-cyl.

i thought there's plenty of turbo kits out there already though, but mainly in Japan, since it was released in japan a while back.

I have spoken to Blitz, S/C, and a company online listed a turbo kit for sale, but both claim nothing available yet, they are taking the JDM stuff and are having difficulties getting it to work with the cars US spec computers. I'm looking for something that is available now and is a "direct bolt in" for an experienced shop. It will primarily be for the looks and style, mostly a trailer queen.
