hope this in the right section & not a repost.
now i class myself as somone with a bit of brain when it comes to tuning an N/A engine & while trawling ebay looking at supercharger/turbo kits i found this
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ELECTRIC-SUPERCHA ... 240%3A1318
& i just wondered if anybody on here had seen it before or even used one or had any idea as to how it workes? it just seems a bit of a gimmick to me.

I just used a hair dryer powered by a 240v inverter. Excellent for cold starts as you can pre-heat the intake for even more power lossdaimlerman wrote:I got an extra -50bhp from fitting an electric supercharger,but only in reverse....

Must say, they aren't as grinding as the twisted bits of metal which go in your inlet making the air more turbulent meaning u get more fuel and power

Oh yes.
I particularly like the picture of the air filter on it's own to the left of the "dyno graph" - You can just see the POWAAHHH coming out of it

I met a guy once who tried to tell me these were great - the sad thing was that his son had bought a load of them to set himself up as a distributor. I didn't really know what to say to the poor guy.UweM3 wrote:or the electric thingy which wraps round your fuel pipe to "straighten" the atoms in the fuel for 10% fuel savings and 20% more powerrix313 wrote:Oh dear they've found there way here too.
