i dont have one but i read many post on this site and on others about the TORNADO which i think works on the same priciples, any ways i heard that instead of helping you it clogs the air passage or tube and that it is not worth your time if i was u i would save up another 50 bucks,if u havent done thisyet, and have your t-body bored out to 55mm and youll be more happy

I'm no physics (sp) major and I don't have one of these but let's think about this. 1. If this thing sits in your intake pipe it is keeping air from going to the TB it is a blockage. 2. superchargers and turbos both have a compressor wheel to compress the air and send it with grater velosity (sp?). This thing is just a fan. 3. Turbo's use exaust to spin a wheel, super chargers use belts to drive wheels. This thing uses electricity so it doesn't spin as fast. Plus it's just sucking air in through an intake pipe that is already doing the same thing sucking so it's not sucking it any faster. 4. If you could bet boost at any corner store for $50 bucks by buying a fan, why would anybody pay 2-3000 bucks for a turbo kit, and Why wouldn't every drag racer in the world run one of these things? Plus an engine needs 2 things to run fuel and air. So if this thing addes so much power (air) why wouldn't it need more fuel to take advantage of it? Does any of this make sence? I'm not trying to be a Dick but if this worked hann and star and any turbo kit maker would be out of business.

"We will ship all product after payments are verified"
I think all it really does is when the fan spins, it makes a turbo sounding whine...Kinda liek the little whistles you get as party favours...wwhhhip wwhiip the harder you blow the higher pitched the sound..

27500, This is easy to answer & NO I don't have one... Posted by Skrilla, Jul-15-02 07:04 AM
...and never will. What it comes down to is this. That little electric fan doesn't produce more cfm's than your block sucking in air. If it did the power cable on that thing would be HUGE and we're talking like 4 Gauge. Turbos fill the cylinders with more air than the block could take in and that is why they are able to aid in boosting power. I say aid because they only push in air but burning fuel is what is needed to make the power.
