In other words; no. That is completely bogus crap, sorry to say. There have been a FEW reasonably successful electric superchargers made, however. It seems that the most economical thing to do is to use the compressor side of a turbocharger with a VERY high speed model airplane motor. There have been used to produce atleast 4psi on a 4cyl engine, no joke. I got into making one a while back, but realized I'd be much better off with a legitimate turbocharger set-up, since I can't really fabricate a bunch of custom stuff.

Unlike typical superchargers that get power from engine belts and can easily damage and blow cylinders, the new Electric Supercharger gets its power from the vacuum inside the throttle body

bad for mulit port fuel injection

good for carburated engines they say it helps the fuel stay mixed longer with the air
