hahahaha oh man why did i know the thread was gonna be about this when i read the title. That thing does NOT work. If anything it would restrict your airflow because the turbines dont spin fast enough. And all it does is ATTEMPT to blow air into your engine, it doesnt compress the air at all. Compressing the air is really what the point of a turbo is.
