is proble a load of shit like the other electric superchargers. dont buy one lol

Buy two - twin turbo :lol:

Whoever designs stuff like this needs shooting!

Total crock of shit I'm afraid. Probably more of a restriction than anything else.

Try it....

why wouldnt it work??

A normal turbo just uses the exhaust gasses to spin the turbine. This uses the battery.

cheap soloution.

Buy a little electric remote controlled car, preferably powerfull.

Rip out the electric Motor, slap on a fan. Wires to the battery.

Mount it inside your intake pipe. control it buy a switch or pressure switch on the throttle.

Aslong as its powerfull enough it would in therory work.

Induction remote controled turbo'd Polos FTW!

HAHAHA , its not gonna increase pressure or anything. Might decrease air temp or something.

tbf that does look a lot better made than the shit you tend to see on ebay, it's not just a pc fan that goes in the in the intake pipe.

saying that it doesn't say what psi it's capable of making, which of cause is the difference between it having an effect and having non.

fuckin hell, you serious?

Somone should phone them up and find out some more info.....

As said, its not like any of the rubbish seen on ebay, so would be interesting to see if this does make an improvement, or is just useless tat.

X 2 - can anyone actually explain why it doesnt work?

It says 'Maximum Pressure Ratio - 1.45'? I don't know what that's supposed to mean, maybe that is just the max pressure in PSI? Seems a bit low if so..

probably makes less psi than one of my farts :lol:

probably doesnt spin fast enough or some shit, font normal turbos spool up to a couple of hundred thousand rpm, not 70k?

all a turbo is is a pump , So is this.

Why wouldnt it?

Could be bar lol.

Making it around 21 psi haha

i'd say they have used that mumbo jumbo just to confuse people, if it did make any decent psi they would of put in there in plane English like they have with all the other info. i mean wtf is a maximum pressure ratio? and what is it measured in? what does 1.45 equate too?

just put there to fool people in to assuming it means psi or some thing imo

probably makes less psi than one of my farts :lol:

hahaha

I swear that when u do a normal turbo convrtion you have to tune many other parts of the engine aswell unless this makes such a low psi that the inturnals can handle it. Does it say how Much it cost cus I dident think I saw a price

yeah, uses 350amps! under acceleration

surely it would flatten the battery before it accelerates?

alternator doesnt produce that ampage at maximum revs.

how does this work!!! :-(

Nice example of a moderator there :thumbsup:

i'm guessing he will still be able to see the post you deleted due to the fact he's a mod :lol:

super lol

even if it doesnt act like a turbo or super.. it will at least provide better induction, and let the engine 'breathe' better or whatever.

probably worth paying for one of these rather than any stupid cone filters or air induction kits, no?

(EDIT - I didnt actually see the price?!)
