it;s all crap.. thats the most expensive one i've seen.. they are all over ebay. it dosnt produce much air to have any noticeable change... i saw a video where a guy hooked a leaf blower up to his intake and gained 40+ and his was on a real dyno

yea, like i said, you're lucky if you get 5 or 6 hp out of it. and for the price, you're better off doing something else.

I'm absolutely positive you can get an electric supercharger to work. Seriously. The problem is, the best way to do so, is to get a nice electric motor and attach it to a procharger (or any other centi s/c) and get a nice set of capacitors in the trunk. Sure, you'll have a supercharger that costs more and you'll only be able to use it in short bursts, but, it would get you some extra power much like a shot of n2o and you don't have to refill the bottle... just wait for the capacitors to recharge...

now we're talking.

what's better than one leaf blower! TWIN LEAF BLOWERS!

we can do a separate custom exhaust for them too since they'll be in the trunk...true dual!

DON"T order from them!
my friend did, it took more than a month to arrive, and when it did, it was somthing u would use to blow up an air matress.
what he got was not what was advertised, its a scam.
