Electric Supercharger?

Didn't think it needed to go in FI forums.

Anyone know anything about these? They seem.. OK?

Or you could mount a shop vac in the trunk set to blow and run a hose to the intake thats how Shdriver gets his car to sound like the one on Mad Max, then you can call yourself a road warrior.

Amazing Aftermarket Technology

The effectiveness of this piece of aftermarket technology must be for real because they have a""" DYNO"" graph to prove it and DYNO's are like the gospel.



Electric Supercharger - Air Intake Blower
If you need a boost and can't afford a real turbo or supercharger conversion, this product is for you. The Electric Supercharger is an adapter to either your short ram or cold air intake. It will work on absolutely any air intake brand including AEM, Injen, MimoUSA, Weapon R, Fujita etc. Simply remove your current air filter and put the Supercharger as a replacement, it's that simple.

The supercharger is operated on a 12-volt source. This means you can connect it to your battery to get the power. It uses 2.2 amps from your alternator when turned on and doesn't affect your car performance or battery drain. The Supercharger is connected to a switch inside the car. Whenever you need more power you simply flip the switch and fly away. It produces 250CFM of forced air into your manifold and it very quiet under the hood when turned on. In fact it has a nice aggressive sound, making it seem like you got something bigger (RICE) then what you actually have under the hood.

A stock turbo from an Audi 1.8T produces 400CFM. Adding the electric supercharger will produce more then half of the power than a stock Audi 1.8T turbo would. There is need to do any modifications to your engine at all. 250CFM of forced air can also be compared to a 15-25 shot of Nitrous.

The supercharger is made out of the finest parts and a certified K&N Filter with Lifetime warranty. Installation is very simple, it should not take more then 15 minutes to install.

Produces 15 - 25 horsepower increase.
Generates 250CFM of forced air.
Universal Bolt-on, installs on any short ram or cold air intake.
K&N Filter included.
Installation instructions and all necessary installation hardware included.
Pipes are not included, the car must be equipped either a short ram or cold air intake. (If you do not have an intake we would recommend the Weapon R Secret Weapon)
Universal application. (Unit will replace your aftermarket air intake filter, please check to see if there is enough room by your air intake filter to install this unit.)
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.

ECU Air Intake Ratio: Each car has an ECU installed to measure how much air ratio is entered into the engine. To get the best results we recommend purchasing a performance chip for your car before installing the Air Intake Blower. The performance chip will tell the ECU to intake more air then usual, which will result in even greater horsepower increase. When the Air Intake Blower will be working, the amount of air that it will force-in will get the ECU confused as to why so much air is being entered. You don't have to worry about ruining your engine or having the ECU malfunction. The ECU will simply adapt to the effect that there is more air being entered and it will let it through, it will not reject it. It will continue to operate as usual. The factory ECU is designed to work at 10% of its capacity. When the Air Intake Blower will be on, the ECU will consider it to be above normal, as it will be working at 70% of its capacity. This is the reason why you can install the Air Intake Blower without modifying any engine parts in your car. Your car was capable of producing this power from the start. It was just never unleashed.





















FAQ
Does the supercharger put a drain on the battery?
No, the supercharger runs on a low current so when it's running the battery is able to compensate for the drain.

How much of a horsepower gain can I get from this installation?
On average you can expect about a 10% increase in horsepower.

Does the supercharger create any restriction on the stock intake?
No, the supercharger has a straight flow design that allows air to pass without restriction when powered off.

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.

If you believe this product is legit , then you believe that this flimsy plastic housed device is able to spin over 100,000 rpm with just 2.2 amps of electrical power fed to it.

So this is why you wanted to put in pistons with a 11:1 compression and a cometic head gasket. Wait that was for a turbo. You should use this with the turbo. You'd make so much horsepower. Then you can tell people yea I got a turbo and a supercharger. That seems ok.

k.

No that idea was if I was going all motor. I decided to go turbo instead. And about these electric superchargers.. I had no idea they even existed until like 5 min before I posted this thread. Thats why I ASKED

Leaf blower superchargers actually do work. They're hideous but they work. When you dyno a civic with one of these and it magically produces 20 more WHP, you can't exactly lie at that point.

Now what I'd like to see is a hood cutout with a leaf blower sticking out of it.

With enough effort it could look alright, even a little interesting, but its still doing the same thing as an e-charger, just a little better.

The throttle of the leaf blower would have to some how be linked to your throttle on your engine or the ecu would never be able to maintain the correct air/fuel ratio like it does with a supercharged or turbo car. So in a practical sense , the leaf blower is not a workable idea.

It's called duct tape. If you are going to mount a leaf blower to your car's intake, you are likely the type of person to have some of it laying around.
