I also wrote them about the RSX Turbo. It was well written and with a concerned tone. Here is the response they sent me.

Thank you for your view, but I am assuming you have never work on both of
these cars, because you will notice that the RSX actually has a lot more
room between the engine and the fire wall. Just to remove the factory
exhaust manifold on a Celica does take a lot of time. We are working on a
header for the GTS and it is still very difficult to make a good piece that
will install easily, and have good performance and clearance. We understand
you enthusiasm for your car, but you should not blame our RSX project for
the lack of Celica items. We do not have any bias for either car, it is
just a business where you must address the demand as well as easy of making
parts. I will pass on your request for a turbo kit, but please remember we
want to make well selling parts for all types of imports, just sometimes it
is not possible to met everyone's demands.


Sorry if I didnt get the quote thing right. I am probably not

I should have mentioned that how does "well selling parts" have anything to do with it. Looking at it in the context of ownership base the GTS has a much larger one than the RSX currently does so I don't see how well selling applies. I feel it almost assumes that toyota owners do not support aftermarket therefore why develop.

Sincerely

RSX has more room between engine and firewall? i've looked under the hood and it looked even more cramped than ours, anyone else look in one?
