lets get all this scams together and inform everyone....

This might be one of those, that looks silly until somebody in real life buys it and gets their car dynoed and guess wat it works. Too bad in my mind this is not one of those. I can see it giving some extra hp. BUt the amount they claiming might be a bit too far fetched.

After looking at the site. Hmm 350 bucks for 15 hp. Watch the video, that fan is super strong, but I dunno have to have somebody else try it. lol

Is that a hoover or Eurika?

HONDA CIVIC EXAMPLE
The bone stock Honda Civic increased from 88 HP peak, to 92 HP peak after installing the e-RAM (almost a 5% increase). No filter changes were even made!



HONDA PRELUDE EXAMPLE
This is a good example of an installation of an e-RAM-3.0-KN on an after-market intake tube for the VTEC series engine.



Acura Integra (non VTEC) installation
This is a view of the e-RAM-3.0-KN installed on an Integra with an aftermarket intake tube. Dyno results from this installation added an extra 6 HP above what was previously seen as baseline HP with the aftermarket intake tube and cone filter alone! Gains were from 3000rpm to red-line!



U THINK IT COULD WORK????

crap! You can't even turn it on all the time- only for 15 seconds at a time. Can you see someone having to flip a switch and count to 15 every time they wanted 15 hp boast and then turn the switch off?? i'd rather have nos. 50 hp boost from the push of a button. those scammers make me so mad!!

One of the memeber here have it done on his 2.2 5sp...it was home made...i think it was CL22. but i met him at the gas station near my school and found out he was one of the member here. he said he felt a different after puting that in. but i dont think 15HP gain

I think it comes on by itself.

"A 3 inch rubber adapter tube attaches the small eRAM fan to the air box or after market intake tube. Electrical control is simple. A NOS style microswitch, 50-amp relay, activated only at full throttle gives the boost when you need it."

In the FAQ

1. Why does the eRAM only come on only at full throttle (W.O.T), and why WOULDN'T I want it on all the time, OR at least to come on at part throttle?

Answer: The word throttle means "Choke." Any time the throttle is partialy open, it is "choking" the engine and creating a variable pressure drop (that's its job). You do not want to engage the eRAM to generate pressure when the throttle body is restricting it. If it came on under part throttle, the choking action of the throttle would just remove any gains in pressure created by the e-RAM. Normally, If you want more HP when you are at part throttle, you just press further down on the gas pedal to open the throttle-body, and let more air into your engine. It is only when your throttle is wide-open, and your engine is taking all of the air it is capable of (equal to the total displacement of your engine - CC's or Cubic inches - minus the drop in air pressure created by inherent restrictions in your intake system) that you can realize any benefits from a pressure generating device like the e-RAM. When you press the gas pedal to the floor, the eRAM engages and gives the added air and HP you need. REMEMBER... THIS IS INDEPENDENT OF ENGINE RPM! IF YOU FLOOR YOUR GAS PEDAL AT 2000 RPM, YOU GET FULL BOOST AT 2000 RPM. This is the reason for the waste gates and relief valves with turbos and superchargers. They run continuously, but the pressure is bled off until the total power of what could be produced through normal aspiration is exceeded. (Manifold pressure above ambient or in other words, above atmosphere) Also, the e-RAM requires very high current, so regardless, it is neccessary to use it only during full throttle conditions as to not tax your electrical system, and not cause exessive heat or wear at the heart of the e-RAM... the high-power electric motor. Having the e-RAM engage too early and too often when it is not needed, will lead to premature aging and failure of the e-RAM device. When used and installed properly, the e-RAM will last for many years, and only require service after thousands of hours of operation.

yeah i read that and it still sounded like junk to me...i think it would be bad for your car too. with a turbo you get boost over the rpm range, but that can only turn on at full throttle or else it will choke your engine.... i would avoid that. it's junk.

KC CL 1785

Technically he may not be lying, because he does sayt hat he got 29 hp with K&N Filter and some other things....
