of course gotta think about it, your engine has a pretty powerful suction on it to begin with. a little fan like those arent gonna be able to push harder than athat suction already pulls....so your just restricting flow now

it's not a little fan, it's a piece of metal that has fins which make the air move in a circle like motion, i really have no idea what that is suppose dto do, but that's what it does.

I imagine it might do something if yor engine was carburated, like to make the fuel and air mix a little better, but for fuel injection i don't think it would do anything.
