Default Electric Supercharger/Turbo? Lame? Or Best invention ever...

Sup guys! I've been looking on eBay, and I found this so called electric turbo/supercharger. Do you think this electric type of forced induction is just some lame ebay scam or do you think it'll actually work?

I mean it runs on a motor, so no turbo lag... and I don't have to worry about overheating.

To shorten this whole thread down, WOULD you buy this?

I just don't get how people don't put 2 and 2 together.

How much does it cost? If it is very inexpensive AND provided good power don't you think it would be so popular that people would hear about and use it often? Even 50HP for $100 is A HUGE gain.

Speaking without thinking
