i doubt it would work... i never believe this type of things like the e-charger and electronic turbos, if they did actually work everyone would be using them.
what does everyone else think?

Well i had a good laugh :lol:

I mean c'mon it even says that you don't use extra petrol, just force more air in 8O . Yes i'd like to run the engine lean while i apply more pressure into one that wasn't meant for forced induction in the first place!!! See how long that lasts!!

People if you see something like this that seems to good to be true then it IS!!! :wink:

hahaha, this reminds me of the 3psi electric turbo lol...

by the looks of things, it's essentially a non-intercooled turbo system - it's got a compressor of some sort that sucks the air in afterall (albeit unfiltered lol)

interesting concept, but i doubt it'll catch on... maybe if they had incorporated a custom inlet manifold (to promote higher airflow velocity into the cylinders), it 'might' just work...
