Yes, please tell us which one you have. ALL of them EXCEPT one are a joke. It'* actually hurting your performance UNLESS it'* that ONE.

Any gains you may feel are purely mental......because you're expecting it.

this is basically what people think of electric superchargers, and this also answers your question about the blowoff valve

Our goal here isn't to make fun of a 'Marketing Victim'. But it might seem that way when we come on so strong.

We pride ourselves in the fact that we've prevented hundreds of members for falling for the BS electric supercharger.

Let'* help the poor victim recover, and move on to REAL performance.

i have looked on line at ALL different kinds of Electric superchargers i didnt buy one, i built my own its a twin fan, the motors are R/C Car Trinity Cobalt Modified Round wire/hi-rpm Motors and fans out of boat exaust fans but im not sure of the pressure they build, but yes there is a very big change at full throttle and when they kick on! but like i said there is some back pressure when there shut down and thats why im looking into some type of blowoff. like i said im not trying to stur up argument just trying to find info to help me. (o.k. this is an edit) i think i just convinced myself thanks to you guys that this idea just wont work! well guys you really know how to burst someones bubble LOL well i tried, well if it werent for yall i probably will F^^%$ something up BAD

why not run the chargers off of the TPS, and have the speed vary with engine RP, like a real supercharger or turbo...?

You don't need no boost controller, just keep em rolling

You got a vid clip or some pix or something?

Yes... I am quite curious to see a video clip from inside the car (with sound if possible) so I can get an idea of what happens when the fans kick on. I'm not going to call BS quite yet if you claim you can actually feel a big difference. I want to see this thing in action.
