Anyone tried this supercharge turbo yet?

hi folks,
I was browsing ebay and came across this item.
Supercharge turbo

Anyone used it before? Will I actually get anymore horsepower from it?
Will it be safe for our car?

It's a scam. These products actually might even restrict airflow even further by installing it.

Any legitimate testing organization has said they are anywhere from worthless to restrictive.

Thomas Knight Turbo makes an electric supercharger that works, but that's the only one that I know of.
