What's a blower?

What is it?
Do you need a S/C - T/C to have one?

^^Those work great! Strap one on your car! (Perferribly on the Hatch. Duct tape works the best.) Adds an extra 20hp! Woo hoo!

So how much PSI at the inake manifold do you think one of those will give you when you open up the throttle?

A blower is simply the forced air portion of a FI setup. Typically though, a blower is considered to be a SC, and used even more for a large sc, like those used on higher displacement engines.

A blower is generally a S/C, and some will replace the intake manifold, so you don't have to worry about the plastic blowing out.

Does anyone know of Craftman makes a maf sensor adapter for their leaf blower?

On a serious note

Isn't there a dyno somewhere on the net of a car with a leaf blower stuck on the intake pipe?
