those are always funny. one day they might actually design an electric engine that can produce enough power to create a supercharging effect, but that day is not today. lol :D

I have to ask... would a low psi (2.1) really do anything at all either way... either steal HP from pulling power... to a same gain...

I could mentally forsee a small 5 - 10 hp gain.... but nothing better then a EAT chip would do.

Be sure to buy the fuel line magnets at the same time.

i honestly wonder if that does anything for the car... i wouldn't be supprised if when its not on that it seels hp from the car because the fact that the impeller will be restricting air flow...

The difference is that in the civic video the leafblower is powered by an external power source, whereas the item in question is draining power from the battery, which must be replentished by the engine. no such thing as free power! maybe the gain is bigger than the loss but it aint free

i think it COULD work if it was only "boosting" when you hit kick down (or wot) because the battrie would have enough juce to power it... im shure all of us with a subwoffer that the amp draws 30 amps takes just as much power is that does.

Thats what I am thinking.... at 200 bucks I would be willing to buy the kit... but I would need dyno time.... anyone know where I can get some for cheap in Cleveland, OH

ha after more thought i am starting to agree. the electric supercharger tecnoligy needs to come A LONG WAY before we can use it.
