    ^ Except that the forcefed kit has some flaws. Mainly the fact that boost comes on fast and hard. Its almost on/off, making the car hard as hell to drive around the track.

    I saw a black Exige about 2 months ago pull up to a stop light next to my Lexus RX300 which I was a passenger in while my wife was driving. It was badass, I hung my head out the window and told the dude how sweet his car was and he just smiled and said thanks. Then he got on the gas while he was driving away and the thing sounded absolutely badass.

    ^ Possibilities for the 2ZZ? Turbokit from forcefed.com S/C modded to fit from a Celica, stroker kit etc.
