:rofl:
It's just a little fan that blows air into your intake. NOT a supercharger.
Total garbage - don't buy.

Trust me... you don't want this. This is like those "speed chips."
If you can't afford a real supercharger - just don't get it. But certainly don't buy anything like this.

It reminds me of the video of some guys using a leaf blower on a Civic or something to dyno. The principle is correct for Forced Induction... your pushing more air into the engine... but the actual gains of something like this are really kind of crap. Might as well buy an intake/header or something.

You would be better off doing something like this,

run some hose to the airbox,collect cold air from under the bumper or grill.

I saw on one of the tuner tv shows where they hooked up a gas powered leaf blower to the intake tube of a car they were dynoing and it gave them around 50 extra hp's. That was very funny to watch and the crew doing it fell on the floor laughing, but in truth it was a cool idea.
Now if you could only figure out how to mount one under the hood and be able to remote start it at right time..........

Wht not reroute your A/C into the intake. Nice cold air blowing there...
