Guy by the name of Tonythetiger On Toyotanation.com had a sick v6 Turbo Camry.

Check out the old threads on TN.com. I thought TRD made a S/C for this motor?

Cool

Two names to know regarding this type of project:
  1. Tony the Tiger (Camry)
  2. McElligott (ES300)
Search "Threads started by user" with McElligott and browse. Here's one of his major threads to start you off: Turbo ES Project - Pics Inside

HOWEVER, both projects (I believe were performed on cars with the 3VZ-FE engine; granted some concepts are common to both engines, and some experience is transferable...)
