I think a couple of companies in Australia make them for the 1UZ.
I'm pretty sure it has been discussed on CL, maybe a search would get you some more info.

there are 2 or 3 available for the 1UZ, and as richie said, it has been discussed... ill do a quick search for ya. they arent that hard to install as long as you know a thing or two... but they are costly.

Isn't the Blitz SC for the sc430 around $10K? Somewhere around there. That's steep for a supercharger.
