Saw it and still cant beleive it

If that can add 9 horse power then why does the e-ram electric super charger only add 1.5?

That eram thing can pop a trash bag. Unless they used a special leaf blower on the dyno

For those new members that don't know better, this is all BS. At least ALL the electric SC'* on Ebay are. I'm not familar with the gas leaf blower, but it seems pretty desperately redneckish to me.

Some guy tried the E-ram charger on his MR2 and got 1.5 horsepower. Thats why its hard to beleive that the leaf blower makes power. Like I said It was like 9 or something, maybe higher I dont remember.

You cannot dyno or characterize a 1.5 hp increase. It'* not possible.
