I found something today that I have never heard of it was an electric supercharger
Here is the link no point in going into detail check it out and tell me if anyone knows how well they work? www.electricsupercharger.com

it's some type of ram air, it basically just sucks in air

 

not that, i am wondering if anyone thinks it will work both on a NA and a Turbo car
I am thinking it might increase power on a type R and reduce turbo lag on my WRX

 

hey the video on the site is pretty funny. he shows that the thing can float in the air and that it can push a piece of log. i thot they were gonna show it running in a car

 

well you really couldnt tell if they did that
What i am wondering is all that pressure would make a difference

 

well theoretically you'd get more air. But will the unit give off alot of heat since it's electric. And also more air doesn't automatically mean more power. You'd have to properly tune the fuel to match the air. I'm no expert here, but one psi is enough to send the factory ECU AWOL.

Please correct me if I'm mistaken. Thank You.

I think it's useless

 

I have no clue like i said it would go on a wrx before my type r I just was thinking that if I could basically making it easier on the engin to pull air that it would create more power at all rpms that is a good point about the heat i never thought of that

thanks

 

I don't think it would be useless why would you say that????

 

Boo Yeah, I don't think anyone is familiar with that product on this board. I apologize for everyone's ignorance. But why don't you give it a test and dyno the sucker and post results. That'll be a great way to find out for yourself.

 

Looks like a new unit..It'll be interseting to see how the aftermarket adopts it. That's the true test of whether it is good or it is just a good idea.

 

the problem with that is i live about 300 miles from a dyno and 210 from the closest speed shop I do my own work but i don't even know where a 4wheel dyno is

 

4 wheel dyno? what kind of car do you drive?

 

anyhow, I say go for it.

 

He drives a WRX,

I'll like to see how well this supercharger works, I say go for it, you got nothing to lose

ILOVERACING

 

question is how would that work with your turbo wrx? spin the compressor wheel at 1 psi before the initial boost? might work...

 

I'm sure it'll work

 

ok now we are getting somewhere and I own a few cars but only two ar under 5.0L
They said it is for only 5 liter and under
I have a 01 ITR
02 WRX- which find ing good parts for is very hard with out importing
95 Vette ZR1
01 Z06 to be sold for the newest as soon as available


I think on the ITR it would create a very useable power increase because i would have more air

I have other cars but none of yall like my bg domestics atleast I don't think yalll do
I need to move but I like the lake]


Hybri CTR you sure do change your mind alot a minute ago it was useless

bad misconception...If it's fast then it's cool on my list. I don't give a chit whether you drive a 20 liter mustand or a .001 liter echo...if it's fast it's fast.

but uh...i would like to see you post some results when you get it.

oh..ps..dont mind hybrid...he has mood swings all the time...

 

had a thought wich for me is rare a all motor ITR could use something like this to increase hp off the line in street or drag races, Sounds like a good idea to bad iam a sucker for turbos it still would help spool the turbo quicker I think this is a good idea but i think people could improve on it, It just needs to catch on and some one like dc sports or Jackson Racing needs to take it over and realize anyone can install this and you can't say that about alot

 

Well I have old mustangs but i don't drive tham cause they break (no ofense to anyone who likes them, mine are show cars)
I have a skyline on order
I call it a waste of rubber but I have a Viper
I have a chevy HD truck
One of the old 69' z28 camaros
a few others and a collection of old bikes and a few boats as well as a house or two

 

and your 17

 

By the way i was told i would never amount to anything and well I ended working with my friend for a rather wealthy company on cars I basically draw out his ideas and we make a $hit load
I say boo yeah to evryone who said we could not amount to anything.

I am not really 17 I said that because i figured they might not send me as much junk mail because i was under age as far as they know I am really 34
Eric did the same thing

the funny part is no one believes us about our jobs oh well one day i will post annd my pictures of mmy house and stuff with me next to it

 

aahahahah.....not this thing again.....its a gimmick...piece o' crap...I had this guy on one of my discussion lists...and he could not answer a single question without double-talking...plain and simple...it doesn't work, ask wicked Lou in the Accord forum about this...thats if he's willing to talk about it....
