Last time I was in Hobart I saw a huge orange hilux about 6 times in a matter of days around Hobart and as far as Glenorchy, I actually gave him the thumbs up while driving through glenorchy just after christmas/newyears. Anyone know who that is?

the only one that looks half like a turbo is a vortex supercharger

Centrifugal supercharger you mean?
As opposed to the roots style (the ones you see on the v8 rods etc)

Like a turbo but the impeller is spun by a belt of the crank, instead of by an exhaust driven impeller wheel. Better boost up high, but not as good down low.
