First of all, you will have to forgive all the people who will laugh at you.

These are rubbish, I could fart more boost than these produce.

My advice is don't buy one.

There was someone on here who actually set one of those things up with big scoop through the bonnet don't know if it did anything for them but long story short those things are rubbish.

talkin to a mate of mine the other day (ford mechanic) and he was telling me that a bloke brought a cheap china version of a electric sc for his xr6 then installed it behind his throttle body and after a while ( didnt say how long it lasted) it broke apart and is now scattered through the bloke's manifold/engine lol but he also admitted that before it broke it did make a slight difference (better throttle response ) , so maybe the force flow one might do a bit more considering its the real deal by the sound of it

First of all that thing is a piece of ****.

Secondly, how many times is this going to be covered. P platers are not allowed any modifications to their cars that change the emissions/power of their cars. NOTHING

Incorrect. Depends on the state. Up here in QLD there are certain things you can do, CAI is technically allowed, so I can't see why this wouldn't be. Same with exhaust and extractors, these are also technically allowed up here in QLD.

It will work below a certain rev, because the fan will be blowing harder than the engine is sucking, but once you hit the point where the engines requirements exceed the output of the fan, it becomes more of a hindrance than an aid. Which is probably 100rpm above idle......

There are electric powered superchargers that can make alot of boost but they are not for sale on ebay and they are very expensive. They are a roots style blower too not a fan
