I don't mean to sound like a pessimist, but I really doubt that those things work. It would spin at the same speed while idling as when you are punching it. So then it would flood your engine at idle speed. Both supercharges and turbochargers change velocity with engine RPM but this fan will only spin at one speed... but try it any way, I could very well be wrong.

actually me and barry figured out that it is possible to make one of those style "superturbochargers" with a lil math it is possible to get an electronic motor to spin at a rate that will give it right around 4-5psi, unfortunetly the draw on your battery would be so severe that you would not get that much hp from it similar to the issues with the thomas knight setup

yeah I looked into those TK ones but they have a whole slew of batteries to charge it up... still not worth it IMO
