Re: Just Sad

I'm guessing thats just one of those electric supercharger deals. Poo poo. Your friend is a dummy. I see that as being more of a restriction than anything.

Re: Just Sad

I tried thinking of a way to hook up a air compressor of some kind to the intake pipe and just hook up some kind of nozel to regulate and dispense the air, but never actually tried it. That really doesn't soundlike a bad idea, but how much air can it really put out? Really it's a good idea in an attempt to make more power and even to make it out of plastic isn't really a bad idea either. I wouldn't buy it but the idea is pretty cool.

Re: Just Sad

It would be interesting to see if it would actually give any boost off. It may work on like a 1.6 honda motor.

Re: Just Sad

CFM output on that is probably so insignificant...more weight , no more powa.
It's more of a head trick and power of suggestion that anything :/ theres also no tech data on them for a reason i'm assuming.

Re: Just Sad

Depending on the car you use it on you may run lean. If you were to put that on a 420a motor and got 1-2 psi out of it the ECU wont add any more fuel. And you would run lean untill you hit fuel cut at 2-3psi.

Re: Just Sad

how much do hairdryers cost these days? That maybe a sweet replacement to upgrade the CFM's/.

Re: Just Sad

I'd try it out on the talon if somebody gave it to me. But, as far as paying for it, you'd have an easier time building a time machine and killing the person who came up with that idea before they invented it.

Re: Just Sad

Electric super-chargers/turbos don't put anywhere enough power to even make a mark. As Silver said, if (and I do mean IF) it actually hit 1-2psi, it does nothing. You guys seen the video of the people sitting a leaf-blower in the intake of a honda or something on a dyno? That made power, but not much... and that has more power than anything.
