All the talk about turbos/superchargers is like being married and having a poster of Megan Fox on your bedroom wall. It is nice to look at, but will never happen, and it only leads to not appreciating what you already have.

LET US ALL HAVE HOPE, its one of those "do you see the cup half empty or half full."

That depends... when someone turbos a 2JZ that's half full of good, inexpensive water that was worth the cost to fill the glass. When someone talks about doing it on a 2IS motor that's half full of $7000/pint water that barely quenches your thirst because of how little power it adds for the cost compared to just getting an IS-F...
