my friend got one of the eram ones and it actually works, his car is quicker cuz of that ****. its a cheap way to add like 30hp. power to you if you get it, but not so much of a disappointment if you dont get it...

that one, no.

i know corky bell (BEGI- Bell Engineering) and a few other independents are experimenting with a real electric supercharger made by a large corporation whose name escapes me at the moment. the biggest concern i've read about the electric units is the drain on the alternator of a 12-14v system.

Just duct tape a leaf blower to the end of your stock rubber intake, extend the throttle linkage from the car engine to the leaf blower and walla, you have just wasted as much time and money as you would have buying that. Do it right and do it once.

Electric supercharger = GAY! and Ricer as hell anyone who has one is a joke!

think about it your putting a crappy blow dryer in your intake that only works for a couple of seconds and when that things not spinning its just restricting your intake
