But actually, what happens if that crappy little fan breaks and you get pieces of plastic sucked into you engine? And tell me, how do these people get positive feedback?

I dont think it has enough CFM to help. Especially once you pull the current from the alternator.)
That little computer fan will give us NA guys a nice "turbo whine" to make it SOUND like we're more powerful... its just too bad its the fan thats being pulled instead of it pushing.
And when it shatters and sends crap flying up through the intake well have a heroing story of our turbo exploding pulling our best run down the strip!

The fan is a restriction. You'll lose power, not gain. Anyone who'* actually SERIOUSLY considering this isn't a dumbass........but remember that old saying "there'* no such thing as a stupid question"????
You're pushing the limits of that.

Seriously though, some of you guys can search the forums for topics similar to this.... it has already been discussed extensively. As Repin said, there IS an electrically-operated Eaton M62 out there somewhere, so electrical supercharging is definitely possible. It just isn't efficient or cost-effective... yet. Keep researching it, and with enough trial and error you just may stumble upon something.

All the big corporations are corrupt in some way. People suck and thats that. Humanity will soon pay the price for their evil deeds, you'll see.
