THERE ARE NO OTHER OPPINIONS!



That = Scam.



Looks like a bloody hopped up leaf blower motor.



There's no way that will ever make any extra power for your motor. Think about it...an electric supercharger...it uses a 12v battery supply and tries to spin really quick to push air into the combustion chamber. This is USUALLY done by using the actual physical force of the engine to force air into the combustion chamber.



You'll maybe get 5 psi of constant power? But that 5 psi will go into keeping the battery charged.
