I was just wondering if anyone has ever tryed one of these. Looks chinchy imo but im just curious.

don't even waist your time with that, your better off using a vaccum.

 

I am also curious if there were any gains, hahaha. Probably better throttle response, other than that, nothing I bet.

 

Produce 250 cfm of Compressed Air Moving Power

Our heads stock flow like 220 on the intake, and we have two of them, so thats 440. It will just become a restriction. Not to mention if one of the blades break off nad get sucked into your engine. It might help at low rpms, but thats all.

 

Added weight.

 

you'd be better off running a hair dryer into the side of you air intake than buying one of those. they are complete

 

Do a search, this gets asked alot for some reason.

Our engines flow WELL over the 280 cfm that thing produces. Most are simpley bilge pumps from the local aqua marine store

I know a guy that builds these things for like 40-50 bux and sells em for a good bit overa hundred. Moves a dozen or more a week. Between that crap and some other stuff he sells on ebay he makes as much as i do and does pretty much nothing. He even made some nice fake dyno charts and everything. Import crowd eats this stuff up like candy, then email him going WOW i REALLY feel it! This is the best $ i ever spent.... Oh well their happy hes happy, so oh well.

 

I dont know why everyone is against these....It's a well known fact these things work amazingly well if used with a Tornado & a fresh set of muffler bearings........

 

Only if your catalytic converter fluid has been recently changed, and you have the Stage 3 booster pack consisting of NOS stickers, Speerco seats, a boost gauge on an N/A car, and have the trim model of Type R.

 

Wow !!! I forgot about that stuff..... did you get that from Dave Vizard ??? good info !!

 

Don't forget the headlight fluid.

 

FWIW (not much) Here's a link to an artical about a guy that got pretty serious about the whole elec. turbo thing.

Damn, thats pretty cool, but thats with a real electric motor it seems. Needs a lot of juice.

 

Yeah i've read about him, they actually do work, but have you seen picks of them? also they are almost as expensive as a belt driven supercharger, and they can only support up to like 2.0L engines.
