Scooby-ru Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Have any of ya'll seen this? It looks like a gimmick. I mean in theory it would work but I just don't see how any 12 volt electrical motor could spin fast enough to produce an actual boost. Anybody tried this? http://www.superchargerswarehouse.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goneskiian Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Pretty sure your turbo will suck in air way harder than this can spin. That is, if you have a turbo. If not, give it a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fx4me Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 I'll bet even N/A engines suck air in faster than that little fan spins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClimberDHexMods Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 Would love an extra blower to get a little extra out of the turbo during spool-up, but if something is too good to be true...

mwiener2 Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 How much HP gain can I expect? Answer: Gains on stock 4 cylinder to heavily modified 8 cylinder engines have yielded 4-6% increases. That's 5-15HP depending on your base flywheel HP. If you are removing a stock air-box, gains for cool air tubes and cone filters are up to 5HP by themselves. The RAM with its 5-15 HP adds to ALL OTHER MODIFICATIONS, so with an intake tube will give over 20 HP of total gain for the RAM + intake system. As much as a 20hp gain at the crank... on top of all existing modifications. I'm getting one so now I'll have 450 hp My Mods List (Updated 8/22/17) 2005 Outback FMT Running on Electrons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
