trd no longer makes the supercharger but i think there are still a few units out there. i dunno if any more brand new ones exist but there is always a chance. and used ones exist.

turbo is all custom.

you can look on e-bay, and I'm sure googling around wouldn't be a bad idea either

What model camry do you have?

The alternative cheapest option if the supercharger is not available would be to drop in a 3SGTE turbo engine from a turbo celica into your ending bay.

I've seen it done before in Gen2, Gen3 and even Gen 4 camrys.

Keep in mind a turbo will sometimes cause you to burn oil or even leak oil due from pressure. Even if you don't have these issues it is very hard on the oil. It causes it to shear and break down much quicker. If adding a turbo you may want to change your oil sooner and check it more often. They can sometimes cause more problems than they are worth.

The only problem with getting a celica engine and dropping it in is the tranny. The celica turbo engine was only offered in the all trac. Which usually means it was awd setup,not all but most.Id recommend you just stick with the stock motor and bolt-ons.Theres lots of problems you can run into with a turbo specially if your not fimilar with them. You cant just slap a turbo onto a stock motor and expect everything to be ok. Youll have to end up changing the injectors possibly some sensors and various other things. The exhuast manifold would probably have to be fabricated to fit the turbo you get. Just my .02$
