Wait.............where have I heard that before. I'd be very skeptical about its effectiveness. Buy one, give it a try and let us all know how it worked out.
it would work. but its a use on a short term type thing. i could take a regular turbo and make it electric, but that thing is a POS. dont waste your money.
OMG! NO!!!! Dont buy ANYTHING that says "electric" turbo! They can NOT create the required psi to give us adequate anything. There have been reports of Mustangs trying this and even LOSING hp. It would be as effective as putting a hairdryer or a leaf blower on your car.
Actual superchargers not only pulls in more air, it also compresses it. That's why many are also coupled with an intercooler, as compressed air is even hotter.
That "hairdryer" on eBay does not actually compress air.
