Forced induction requires air compression for there to be a power increase. Superchargers and turbos compress air and "force it" into your engine.

Did you read the add? It can only be used at FULL THROTTLE for 30 seconds at a time. Since it only works when floored you wont be saving any MPGs. I guess if it actauly worked, it might be usefull going though mud holes.

Eh it was just a dumb idea. I plan on getting a snorkel and doing a true cold air intake that way soon.

To the OP, don't waste your time. Electric "superchargers" are junk. Take those extra laptop fans and spend the money trying to build an R/C helicopter or something.
