As you probably guessed, yes it is a piece of crap. I would NEVER put that on my car. If anything, it would cause damage to it. Did see the pictures? It looks EXTREMELY shady to me. DO NOT buy it. One thing I can't stand are scam artists. Oh well, if people are dumb enough to buy it, then...actually it still pisses me off!

fast-tl

It's funny all their feedback is for "private" items. NO way to tell if they're real customerd.

Tell me if I am wrong, but in that second pic it looks like they used plastic PVC pipe and then painted it blue with an elbow of the same nature?????? It looks like a scam....

Move over Comptech here comes Gulf Coast


:shit: thats about all the "supercharger" is good for

thats not a even a supercharger...if you think about it...in theory, the way it works (how it sucks air), where and how it connects to the throttle body and obviously the shape of it suggest its a turbo...
Now, look at the MASSIVe ammount of MOVING AIR POWER...250cmfs...this is less than what the wind blows against a CAI.

BUT the good news is, it will replace the stock air filter for a kind of short ram intake, and if it does blow this little air, it WILL increase the stats, not too much but it will and you will feel it more than getting a CAI...unless it runs out of batteries!!!!

I'd like to experiment with it...how about we all chip in a small amount (less than $10/peace should do it) and someone volunteers to mod their intake to put this "TURBO" in...ill volunteer since i have my stock intake burried in my attic.

elah

etxxz those blowers cant produce pressure, theres no point, quick engine basics

when your cylinder goes down it creates a vacume which forces air in. now if your plannin on putting a 20$ oversized computer fan which thats what his selling for 150$, it cant create pressure so your not going to get any gains. now something engine driven(supercharger,turbo) creates pressure and increases the psi and how much air actually goes in.

fan being rated at 250cmfs doesnt mean its actually going to force that much air in, engine is only going to take what it needs since its not really pushing again since theres 0 psi out of that thing. dont waste your money.

tru tru, i just connected my fan, which is bigger and pretty powerfull, put a plastic thing around so that i created a vortex effect on the discharge side and put my hand/face to block the discharged air [ FAN> -_- ] and you are right...it doesnt create pressure since it just stops sucking air

no point in buying, im eating my previous words right now, but you can still send the $10.

What a joke. It would be better if you attach that motor to the power train to add 0.0001 Horse Power.

electric superchargers will be coming for real, but that one is in fact a hoax. i did read a good car and driver article on electric superchargers though and a few prominent companies are working on them. any of the 'e-ram' things you see though wont even power your vacuum. don't waste your time.
