the electric super charger (leaf blower)will restrict the air flow at higher rpms

if no one uses an electic "supercharger", and ive never even heard of someone making one...its safe to assume that its not a good idea, bc i doubt any of us around here can invent engineering marvels to change racing forever

correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't Mazda puting an electric assisted turbo onto the RX8 to speed it up a bit.

http://rotarynews.com/?q=node/view/381 Sounds like they could be but only used at low rpm. As already said, too restrictive at high rpm. If Mazda is, I bet its a lot different from the dirt cheap ones you found. I'd steer clear.

Electric assisted not electric. It is still exhausted driven!

I heard Mazda isn't putting an electric assisted turbo on but a hydrolic turbo of sorts. Just what I heard though.
