Re: Electronic turbo Kit?? WTH (GudeH23a)
There's only one electronic supercharger/turbo, its made by TurboDyne...but its mostly for getting faster spoolup times on your bigger turbos.
I dont know where you can buy them, but i HAVE seen one on ebay before.

exactly. we have so many smart/experienced engineers out there and i'm pretty sure they thought about this. traditional turbocharging has been around for years and just like anything else, things can only improve. So, if we don't see them used by big racing team, car manufacturers etc, it probably won't work. i'm pretty turbos just cost wwwwaaaayyyy more because there is a reason for it. Ya'll know the saying, "you get what you......"

but here's a thought, what if you hooked up the turbine side of the electric turbo to the compression side of your regular turbo. then you'd have more air goin in hopefully/maybe (and i stress on maybe) reduce boost lag? iono, like i said, just a thought.

Dont waste money on Greedy, garrett, XS, Drag or other turbo products that cost $1500, $2500, $3500 or more for a product that is hard to controll, does damage to your engine, and costs a ton to maintain, this is a one time cost that will never need more than a new air filter.

The thing is someone will actually buy that. Notice how they spelled Greddy, "Greedy." Subliminal advertisement? Anyhow, whoever is selling that is not an idiot. They know that someone will actually buy it. Scary thing...

"Does the thought of over heating your engine with a turbo kit keep you awake at night? No need to worry about this because it puts out less heat than an oldfassion turbo with an intercooler."
i thought i was the only one lol

Anybody who wants to buy this hunk of crap should send me the 200 bucks and I will send them a leaf blower that they can hook up to their car instead. I will even install it for you! And I "promise" you will get 500+ whp.

Re: Electronic turbo Kit?? WTH (mplex2000)
There are electric superchargers that will do a very solid job of boosting low-end torque and reducing turbo lag / boost threshold when they're hooked up on the intake side of a conventional turbo. But let's just say that the amount of current required to do this successfully necessitates using 1/2" diameter welding cable from the battery to the motor.
Don't ask how I know. Look at my email address.
