why not go to a 22r..2.4 petrol
ive heard its pretty much a straight bolt up conversion,not 100% sure but search and see..
if you wanted you can buy turbo's for 22r's aswell,
never heard of a supercharged/turboed 18r but would be different..
anyway im no professional so have to search around..
cheers..smiley..

if you get an SC14 off a 1GGZE 2 lt toyota twin cam fuel infected supercharged 6 cyl you will have the right sized s/c for the 18R you will just need to make a mounting bracket and pipewordk but im not sure if the carb needs to be before or after the blower

have you got a supercharger? i just bought a setup to suit 3y hilux but i can't use it due to the power steering set up in the way, (sucks)

it is a sc14 of a 1ggze soarer, this supercharger is good for all small 4 cylinder engines 2litre up to 2.6 litre +, bought it from a jap import place in (SA). with custom made pulleys and bracket, the reason why i went for this setup is that it is switch activated, so i can have it on when i need the extra pulling power, (like mad max) if you have a quick look in the history of this forum i requested information a while ago and got a lot of responses and helpful tips. i hope this helps a bit
