I hate to "****n" listen to all these NEWBIEs riding around with their stock celicas.... ... you have ST which is auto... I would recomend NITROUS...why ? well here are some reason's... 1. CHEAPER ... Nitrous installed is around $700.... and refills are around $30 w/ around 50 shots you can squeize around 20 times.... 2. CHEAPER AGAIN... turbo for ST would be custom, 7AFE doesn't have any turbo kits designed for "Celica ONLY" 3. AUTOMATIC car.... Nitrous is the best on Automatic, the reason why is because you can SPRAY starting off 2,000RPM in First gear, then Auto does the rest.... (it's almost Impossible to SPRAY on Manual car in FIRST gear....no traction) -and besides your take-off is going to be AWESOME (ps no turbo lag)... AND with couple $ / bolt-ons you can easily break into 14s (heheh STs are like 17 sec carz) .....TRUST me dude, this comes from an actuall "TUNER" and experience w/ my car .... not a ****n guy that makes custom APC intakes.... lolz.... any questions.... let me know

1. Cheaper yes, but if you're looking for an ALWAYS ON solution, nitrous is just a waste of money. It's only good for the tracks, unless you would like risk getting pulled over for having the bottle in your car.

2. No turbo kit for the 7A? Then what do you call **this**? Although it says Corolla, it WILL work for a Celica. But then again, there's always a swap, you is more costly, but it WILL rip nitrous a new asshole.

3. You can have a turbo'd AT car as well. Personally, I think it would be a waste, but it can be (and has been) done.

If you just want to be fast at the TRACKS, then go nitrous.
