Watch the video near the end of the listing. They install it on a high-output XJ.

Have any of you ever tried one of these? Looks pretty cool, but I'd like to see some numbers of actual gains.

So, what did we learn? $1600 for 20 HP- NOT worth it.

What does the part you're looking to buy cost? I bet you'll be getting 1/2 a HP for the money.

Cool video, man. I figured they wouldn't do much for air compression.

Sorry, you are right & I was wrong........you would get 2.125 HP.

Still not worth it.
