The supercharge was not made for the GT, due to hood clearance, and some other stuff. So who knows how much would it cost to put in one :) Maybe you can custom it on your car and tell us how much would it cost :)

TRD claims a 35% hp increase, if i remember correctly some dude on one of the matrix forum dynoed his car at somewhere around 160~170whp Compare to about 100~110whp stock

IMO TRD USA sucks :)

Doesn't the matrix 1zz and the corolla only come with 130hp, opposed to the GT 140hp. In a GT whp would be closer to 175-180. i/h//e could prolly put you close to the 195whp range....in a lighter car than the GTS/Corolla/Matrix. Potentially high 13's with the right driver, supporting mods, and some weight reduction. The TRD 1zz blower is about $2,600 also from partznet. Not a bad price. (cheaper than upgrading to a GTS)

This is the pic from SEMA...looks like a celica to me. (you may have to copy and paste the link)
