Oh no...not again. In before the lock.

Check this one out ---> http://www.spiralmax.com/
If you click on the FAQ it actually says you can put 2 of them inline and get twice the power!!!

 

those are such BULL..poor folks...when i was a young kid years back i bought one from NAPA..$20..it did nothing

 

Its worked for me so far...

GSRwBoost has an upgraded battery pack on his that gives him extra boost...dont knock it until youve tried it!

 

are you serious? any dyno proof that this thing accually does something?

 

when i tried it i thought it made me lose power...seemed like it was more of an obstruction then a help. maybe i just got the cheap one.

 

I'll stick with my Jackson!

I got the Super E-RAM and it's much better than the basic one.... i'll try to post my dyno with just the E-ram, you'd be surprised....

 

I have seen a dyno from a Supra that went for the single E-RAM conversion instead of the standard single turbo swap. He said it pulls MUCH harder because it produces a lot less heat

 

i know its been talked about, but I don't think ANY of them have hit almost $150 USD...you could get a icebox!

btw, this thing does absolutly nothing. If anything, it'll break and get stuck in the TB.

Lol 48 ft/lbs with Spiral Max !

But its a TURBO SUPERCHARGER how could you possibly go wrong. It's the best of both worlds

Disclaimer: Anyone who bids on this item can't be pissed and go all E-thug on me when it doesn't do ****.

 

 

maybe you got a faulty one, I gained 30whp when I installed mine.

 

Install 2 it will eliminate supercharger lag (as in turbo lag).

 

yea but then the parasitic effects on your engine will be unbearable...

even it out by taking off the power steering belt

i heard you can also install this product in a catback exhaust system and see gains of 50 hp!!!!! to the street!

 

Well, I sure hope you guys are kidding or the butt dyno is lying big time, otherwise the laws of physics are not what scientists claim they are.

But man... that thing went for $142! I could build one like that for a couple of bucks! When will people realize that 240cfm is *not* a lot of flow. And I could build a much more powerful one (like the e-RAM) for under $80... it's just a R/C jet's ducted fan unit with a powerful 12V hobby motor. I still think it wouldn't do much though. And pulling 40-50 amps or so is not a good idea, as the alternator only puts out 90 amps max, so I seriously doubt it has 40-50 surplus amps all the time.

But, if the thing was powerful and had it's own adequate power supply rather than being a parasite on the alternator/battery, then I think it might have some chance of being useful, but it still wouldn't give big gains.
