oh man ..is this the same company that makes the turbonator!! i dont know dude 250cfm? it might do something, but then again its so simple if it worked, you would think it would have been out before.

Didn't you see the leafblower dyno?

This thing draws less than 32 watts of power. That can't move much air no matter how efficient the fan and shroud.

Think of it this way, a turbo usually drops about 200 degrees C from your exhaust temperature. That's a pretty decent measure of the amount of heat being used to drive the turbine. That's a whole lot more than 32 watts...each of your high beams draws 55 watts...

OK, to be fair it will do something, but for that price, I'd hold out for something more effective.

lo-bux-racer ...theres no way it could get 15 to 20hp could it ?

STAT

Arn't those things like $50 on ebay???

superbill

Turbonators work.

Did a first grader write that product description?

Unless it's translated from another language, I would never buy anything from a company that is incapable of using proper grammar.

LOL I hope you are just trying to confuse the newbies.

the leafblower dyno was great i don't even think there would be enough room for that thing in the engine bay with a shortram setup.

Saying absolutely no would be a hateful thing to say. If the base engine makes 500 hp, it just might add 15 or 20 hp, but then again, if the base engine makes 500 hp, only 250 cfm would probably end up being a serious restriction.

I have my doubts, and I wouldn't believe it unless I saw 1/4 mile trap speeds or improved top speed (no, I don't trust any intertial dyno for something like this...I've seen 4% hp variations between runs on a Dynojet with no changes whatsoever).

Here's another interesting thought: the 2AZ-FE pulls 260.68 cfm assuming 100% VE at redline. So this thing is going to be out of breath at the time you really need it. Doesn't sound like good engineering to me. Oh, yeah, they claim 250 CFM, but at what pressure drop? Standard 20" of water like all carburetors, or something less (maybe a LOT less)?

I wonder how many people can say they have this uner their hood.
If I met someone that had it I would prolly not take them to seriously ><

I actually met someone that had one of these under his hood . His car wasnt runnin at the time and he flipped the switch . He said it made a difference but then again who knows . Im with the rest of the group , if I see dyno numbers then I will believe it .

superbill

even dynos can be wrong!... or worse falsified.
