Re: 30-40 extra HP

It looks like the seller bought it and then realized it didn't do squat. Notice he just became an eBay member and has zero buys or sells.

Re: 30-40 extra HP

The most a person could hope from that thing is to mount it on the rear spoiler facing backward and hope for some thrust!

Actually I had one of thoughs and it worked quit well. It hooked up to this grate in the fireplace and would blow hot air out into the room.

Re: 30-40 extra HP

My buddy forwarded that ebay ad to me awhile back.....I asked him if he put one on his car, but installed it backwards so that it's sucking power out of the car!! (his LT1 is one of the slower ones I've seen...unfortunately for him ).

Re: 30-40 extra HP

That electric motor would never be able to keep up with the vaccum of the engine. Scamm!!
If anything, that thing will restrict the cars potential.
