I posted a thread about it not to long ago. I have to find it.
The Toyota MR2 MKI had a Twincharger setup from HKS or was it Greddy for the stock supercharged MR2.

Streets? That thing is not street legal especially in Kalifornia.

There's a Corolla here in Australia that has had the supercharger and turbo route done to it... well the engine was a 4AGZE (1.6L supercharged) with a turbo fitted as well... I don't know why it's done but anyway... some nice fabrication work, would've taken forever to fabricate!

For some reason I have a hard time believing you been inside a wrx. Tin boxes? I dont think so. My roomate owns one.. I driven it.. I seen it go off the road unintentionally.. and come out relatively unarmed where other more frail cars didnt.
