Surely you are joking.... right?

I don't think you will find many Porsche owners who have wired up an electric boat blower to their cars.....but hey, you could be first.

Go big with Twins!

You just have to think for a second if there was a way to produce a large amount of hp cheaply such as this ram air idea everyone and there grandmother would be running with it. This item is a scam no gains will occur and you could actually do more harm then good installing crap like that in your vehicle.

And for the icing on the cake, you'll want to add in some zMax...



On a sidenote, the "new and improved" electric supercharger has been tested to provide up to 1psi of boost in some cases(maybe on a 1.1L 3 cylinder motor).

True that.

And I was dead serious.

Every one of those I have ever seen were actually electric bildge blower pumps meant to clear fumes out of boat engine compartments.

I'll admit that I did try the magnetic fuel saver when I was younger and dumber.

Some time back someone did try it for fun and had a video of it as I recall it was really noisy and drained allot of alternator juice. He also said he gained HP by taking it off.
