You mean this...

I believe it just blows air into the intake, not the manifold. If anything you might gain more mileage but it's not going to be the same effect as a supercharger what so ever. It's not a scam I don't think, they should've just called it something else.

ROFL Yeah they work so good goto EBay and search for one and look at the sellers feedback. They have 1000 people with 1 feedback saying they loved it and 200 with 100+ feedback saying it's a huge scam

How about you give this guy one to test it out and get some feedback? That way he get's his sc and him and his parents are happy, and you get your testimonial? Just a thought.

*Warning*

OK guys here's the deal with that POS! It works with a switch that you put in your car. You manually turn it on and off. My friend put it on his VW Golf. Here's the thing.

When you hit the switch it starts forcing air into the motor which is fine. When you shift your motor is not trying to pull air in but this "supercharger" is still throwing air at your motor causing your car to buck and run like shat. The only way to prevent this is by turning it off everytime you shift and then back on when you're in gear. Garbage.

You're going to have to talk to snobird about that, maybe he'll cut you a deal. But like CTCOBALTSSS said, his point makes sense, I wouldn't doubt that it didn't do anything to your car in a positive way, maybe if it's an automatic I could see it helping.

letting him try it on a trial basis. Sucks about your car btw, I can't believe they are going to try to fix it, the frame is bent = no repair at all! I know your lawyer will take care of it. good luck

Horses are a bigger pain maintaning then a car though, but it gives a new name to HORSEPOWER! Horses still aint cheap either. THe sub frame is connected to the main frame, so if the sub frame is tweak, the main frame will be too. Even if you can't noticeabley(sp) see it take measurements, it's probably off, maybe your lawyer can use this against Geico If not, sneak into the junkyard at night with a big ass hammer and do it yourself. LOL!

Dyno proven my ass don't come here trying to call me out it is a FACT I said that the ******* ebay sellers use each other and fake accounts to post positive feedback, and the items they REALLY sold detail how bad the item is. Dyno proven? You show me your dyno sheets with it off and on then and I will believe it adds the 1 - 2 hp... Oh wait I found the "dyno sheets"

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Aude-...76331448QQrdZ1



Wow nice ******* dyno!

Oh and here is an interesting piece of literature from the post as well...

Wow amazing, slap a new non-restrictive air filter on the "turbo super setup" in place of your stock box and dyno and there is a DIFFERENCE?!?! NO WAY!!!! Sounds like the air box mod!!! OH WAIT IT IS!!!

Do my homework? It is clear and present stupidity to even have ordered one snobird. Maybe we should just flame you for a while for being DUMB enough to order such a FRAUDULENT PRODUCT

More homework? OK !!!!

Technical Data - How it works: All stock air intakes are designed to intake a certain amount of air. The intake ratio is usually set at only 10% of its full capacity. In other words your stock air intake is designed to only intake 10% of the air that it could intake. This leaves 90% of the air suspended from entering your engine. The reason you get horsepower increase when you get a short ram or cold air intake is because you are no longer restricting the air to come in. The air is being free flowed by your engine itself. If you measure how much capacity is left over after installing a short ram or cold air intake, you will realize that you have about 60%-70% capacity left of potential air to enter your engine. This is where the Air Intake Blower comes to place. It will be help your engine intake more air resulting in making less pressure on the engine itself, horsepower increase and improving gas mileage.
Wow amazing... It is supposed to be ADDING pressure (PSI) to your engine yet it is RELIEVING PRESSURE!!! AAAAAMAZING!

How much CFM will the supercharger produce?
The supercharger produces 250 CFM but when combined with a cold air intake it produces about 2 PSI of boost.

Will the supercharger create too much air and cause problems with the intake manifold?
No, the supercharger compensates for that event and slows does to put less stress on the intake manifold.
The intake manifold? Does this mean my diamond plated floorboard will fly off?



Wow took the car to 9k RPMs and got a total gain of over 30 hp!

Man, 30 hp for the electronic dyno proven super-tubro-ultra-intake-manifold-safe-charger...


Count me in!
