Recently I have been seeing these electronic turbos on eBay claiming to give you 10-30 extra horse at the flip of a switch. Is this true or just a very fancy Tornado?

 

Oh they are real alright. Don't mind the people saying they are just boat bilge pieces!

I installed one on my Type-R and am now making 498whp and 321ft/lbs of torque at .00005 bar.

 

If they worked you'd see a group buy on them stickied at the top.... do you really think a plastic "turbo" can compete with a 4000 dollar turbo setup??

Electric turbos and superchargers are

 

they are simply a scam

 

Does anyone think I could compare one of those to a t-66 turbo? Just curious because Id like to switch for weight reasons.

 

dammit...do a search...i've seen this topic a million times already!!!

 

1,000,001 now... and I guarantee there will be another one by next week...

They DON'T work, and will HURT performance in the top end (The fan can't keep up w/ the air flow requirement).

Do you reply to all of them too? Get a life and stop writing nonsense in my topic.

 

How about you learn you roll, and do a freaking search the next time you decide to ask a question that has already been asked over 25 times on this board, and would take you less than 2 minutes to hit the "Search" button...and eventually eliminate the abundantly excessive amount of bandwidth wasted on this board b/c of idiots like you...
