    Default supercharger????

    found this on ebay just wondering if any one has bought one??
    http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Electric-Supe...QQcmdZViewItem

    it seems to be ok but im not soo sure as it looks like another restriction in the intake,i already have a gas mixer.

    and would it work with gas or make my engine go BOOM?

    ive seen those a few times looking around on ebay...im a bit skeptical myself, it just seems really dodgy. plus all those "customer testimonials" makes me even more skeptical, having a clearly fake letter from a "happy customer" saying how good the thing is.

    the seller doesnt seem to know what hes trying to sell. look at the questions at the bottom, every one has a similar response with the same sentence in it - "it will generate boost throughout the entire rev range"

    Thats prolly becuase they woudnt have dam clue, and it would differ from car to car, very low boost.

    Even the good electic fan type blowers only make like 3 psi on a 2 liter, it wont do anything much on a 5 liter that's for sure

    You have lpg allready so you might as well just run a couple turbos, go get the setup passed at an engineer and be done with it, saves wasting time and money on go fast bits

    one customer claimed an 18hp increase, a good exhaust, headers, cai should get you that easily and more with a chip to suit the mods you have

    For a motor that small you could run a air pump from a pollution chev small block and make some good boost

    one of these electric supercharger manufactures posted dyno'd on ebay,
    it was in a 2.5L engine, made +8rwkw.... the technology isnt good enough yet, watch them put some steel bearing fans in there with some serious power going through them and watch them be boost to over 10psi, mmmmmm could imagine the drain on the battery, 10A+ atleast!!!!
