Now I know all of those marine pumps on ebay are loads of crap that will destroy your engine. But I came across this electric turbo (if you will) and it looks legit. There is a video clip where the thing actually flies, and they have done dyno testing with results. Check it out. http://www.electricsupercharger.com/ Has anyone tried one of these, and what does everyone think about this?

 

Scamola. Have you heard the one about how you can get paid for surfing the web?

 

sounds like they took the fan off a hair dryer.

 

This car had the best electric SuperCharger.

 

Not even in the same category. Come on, I wasted my time with that link...

 

Does nobody use the search function anymore? Look up "electric" and I'm sure you'd find the plethora of ignorant threads on the subject.

 

Your right pjal, I did the search, and there is a ton of ****, but nothing about this particular blower. Did you even go to the link and look at it?

 

I did and you know what? Look at the various different style pictures from the garbage threads and you'd see that the link you posted looks similar to the rest of bunch.

 

that thing might work but for $299 I better also get head
l====>

 

Yea, that is pricy considering it probably won't add as much HP as they say. If you go to yahoo or any search engine and do a search on "'e-ram electric supercharger" you will find a lot of independent results and dyno tests. Besides, it would be tough fitting that into a Lancer without putting the battery in the trunk, or putting the intake right next to a major heat source.

 

has anyone ever heard abot "the tornado?" you put on your intake......its been on tv as an info-mercial. any word on that?

 

yea does that really work..havent seen that informercial for awhile now...does it really work...if it does i wanan get one...coz im not feelin the hp that my lancer is producing...hehehe

 

Search Function. Learn it. Live it. Love it.

This has been tackled along with the supercharger, and the consensus is that the gains are minimal, at best, and fuel economy gains are also probably non existant.

That, and consider that a part like this can be very cheaply made. Just think of those lovely little jagged pieces of metal being sucked about two inches in through your butterflies in your throttlebody. God knows what damage those little bastards could do.

 

Actually run an outside search with the major search engines. There are several lawsuits where the device has vibrated apart and got sucked into the intake.

 

Wow, really? I'm not being sarcastic, I hadn't heard that. I just kinda theorized that something like that would happen.
