There is one on their web site...7hp increase on a 2.5l V6 Probe.

7hp aka 5kw. Dyno's can vary upto 15rwkw on the same car between runs with a GOOD operator and can be made to read anything you like with a dodgey operator. So lets say we add 15% "BS" factor and it legitimately gives you 4rwkw gain on a 2.5L engine.

You can get the same difference before/after a service or batches of fuel.

So... $750 for 4rwkw or 200 odd for a service and probably the same gains... Hmmm...

All this ofcourse assuming I am willing to entertain the idea that these do ACTUALLY give a credible gain... which I'm not.

$750 for that?

I should get one of those in car tyre inflators, jam that bad boy in airbox, jam the noozle down the throttle body, and switch it on.

those brushless electric motors are awesome for rc cars and helicopters on a fan it would spin fast if geared right, but in a car i doubt it

WHAT, nearly 800 bucks. :lol:

You can get the same thing from america inline for $200. AUZIE companies love to rip people off.

Be interesting though to add an electric motor to a proper turbo body and impeller without the exhaust side of things.
THEN add the stargate magnet bracket with 16 or so neodymium magnets to boost the revs of the electric motor!!!!
