I only know of one that is actually for sale right now and thats zpi. I believe their website is zpiracing.com. I have heard good things about them and are seriously considering them. I am waiting for other offerings before I jump into it though, but I am for sure going to boost my tC.

nightryder have you looked into the trd scion supercharger as an alternative ?

http://www.scion.com/assets/media/pd...nibrochure.pdf

Look at the brochure and look on page 7 for more details. You can also ask your local scion dealer as well for more information.

ecu tuning is still an issue and several people i know are getting rid of their ZPI kits for TRD s/c, even though its less power, but still reliable. u can upgrade to pulley to a 9lb pulley.

someone needs to make a standalone ecu management system that can datalog, tune, and adjust every single thing on the car. kind of like Hondata K-Pro for the K-series.

i'm not sure how the Unichip is on our cars though...

You can go to www.zeropointindustries.net. They have a Stage 0 turbo kit for $2,700.00 and a Stage 1 turbo kit for $4,400.00. They can be long on shipping time but they make up for it with the quality of their products. They are new in the business and arent completely organized yet, but I am going to give them a chance because of the quality and effort they have shown to me with numerous calls keeping me updated with my orders.

I think im going to get Stage 0 and build my engine up and then upgrade injectors, computer, bov....etc. It seems like that would be the best route to take.
