My buddy who has a talon esi was tellin me about this after i told him that a fan cannot create boost.... this clames that it can create 1 lbs of boot threw and up too 22,000 rpms. it even has a video of the fan... Do u guys think this is for real? cuz from what i know all a fan can do is blow air not create boost.
What do u guys think?

Anything that moves more air into the intake than the motor is consuming will increase pressure in the manifold. While I dont doubt that this POS may increase pressure slightly (or reduce vacuum, depending on how you look at it) I doubt it has the nut to create any positive pressure in the manifold. Either way, they claim 10-15 hp gains. Sounds somewhat realistic. But then ask yourself, what the hell are you going to do with 10hp... With all the wiring, and a 58 amp draw, etc, it seems like you're going a long way for nothing IMO...
