you do know whipple makes twin screw superchargers right?
that wouldn't work on a celica laugh.gif
you need a centrifugal type supercharger like vortech.

2ndly you can use the stock intake manifold on the supercharger and the turbo setup.

if you chose SC you'll have to figure out how to make a bracket to mount it in order to run the acc. belt around it.

turbos you can get boost before 3,500 rpm it just depends what turbo you want to use.

turbo will be the easiest and cheaper option

as well as BOV is overrated, look into a by-pass valve such as one FORGE makes, it recirculates the excess charge keeping it in the system providing better/smoother performance, and yes it can still make a cool sound too
