http://www.turbo-kits.com/matrix_turbo_kits.htmlThe superchargers are not produced anymore so you'd have to find one 2nd hand on ebay or the forsale sections of newcelica/9thgencorolla/matrixowners or here

I was told since I got an automatic, I would at least have to change the torque converter.Any thing else I should be aware of before going turbo?

with auto, look into torq converter, shift kit, while the tranny is apart maybe cryo it (gears etc), bah there was one more important part to upgrade....

Heu... when you're saying cryo it (are you refering to cryogenic?!!) Is the GRedyy eManage blue a piggyback (as the unichip)?

I'm surprised more guys around here don't use it!!!!!!!!

And I guess it would make it easier to go back stock if I ever had to sell it after.Do you know what northvibe ment by cryo the tranny?

I think what he was trying to say is that if your turbo-ing your automatic,you'll have to get the tranny rebuilt with stronger components.Level 10,IPT have kits available.I have the monkey wrench TQ converter,and level 10 VB and it holds up fine,but I've got s/c not turbo.
