electric supercharger???

Has anyone tried one of these????

I'm a huge fan of horsepower, but for the money and claims that they make about them, I would think they are a good item to have. IF you don't want to drop 3000 dallors on a supercharger.

You'd get better results putting a battery pack on your back and strapping those on your shoes to help you run a fast mile.

No don't get one, no they don't work, no they don't meet the claims they make.

Now Paypal me that money you were going to waste on one.

I second GhostZ's remarks.

They're a scam.

For instance, it takes 35 hp to drive a supercharger. 35 hp electric motors are about 12" in diameter and over 100#.

Yeah, but make sure it's a Toro.
