this EXACT same product was listed on ebay before, and it boasted only 150cfm, so i dunno how this guy can say his blows 160 to 180, and he is a dumbass and he cant even spell words right "resaults" "mear" "hoursepower" , its a scam, this guy just bought it and is trying to sell it for more than he paid for it. there has to be a website somewhere if these things are being sold around, id check that out first, and is it just me or does it just look like a tube with a wire connected to it and a fan in the middle?

it looks like a $5 fan from radioshack with a pvc tube around it. im sorry but u need to spend some sort of $$$ to get REAL results. some $5 ghetto radioshack setup is just gonna drain u of ur $5.<BR>my opinion<BR>Dan

Heres the funny thing guys, IT DOESNT CREATE ANY BOOST..... its just an electric fan so all it does is accelerate the air a little, there is no compressor on that piece of s--- to make any boost. Its not a supercharger or a turbo or anything like those at all.

Wow, I guess all the automotive engineers and tuners for the last 70 years are fools. :darin:<P>You're converting mechanical energy to electricity back to mechanical energy. That process is obviously not 100% effecient, so you're guaranteed to lose power. :darin:

somehow i think it'd be more effective to mount a squirrel under the hood and train it to blow air into the intake...<P>(sorry guys, lack of sleep = strange thoughts in the mind of jason)
