lol good laugh, tho could probly make that if nos was fitted proper, that leaf blower would probly skav almost as much power as it made if it was taking power from car, they make a "supercharge" liek that anyway rotrex or something. Leaf blowers alot cheaper then that rotrex junk tho lol

[dazleeds]

ok so whos gonna try it??

if it works let me ill get 2

[WillG]

if you got a transformer and rectifier and cut pipes off leaf blower to fit it in it might make some cheap power, probly wont last long tho

Didnt someone sell elec turbos in the 70's I can remember reading about it in street machine mag.

[keggy]

they sell them electric turbos again!

[WillG]

yeah i think they are called rotrex superchargers

[Turbo-Brown]

Err, Rotrex superchargers are serious pieces of kit, not this electic crap people sell on e-bay!

Rotrex is just the brand name for a company that makes centrifugal superchargers which in themselves are just a generic product.

i said in previous post i wasnt sure exactly what they are called its probly not rotrex then but i have seen these electric chargers before and heard they arent very good, doesnt mean they arent, i read alsorts of shit doesnt mean its true

I would love a Rotrex on my motor -but I think the electric thing you are referring to is called "Turbo ZET" -looks like a fan in a tube... Seems like a crap idea to me!!

[WillG]

IIRC it looked like a compressor side of turbo with a motor where turbine should be
