Junk Electric Supercharger or Turbo [Merged 1-7] intake fan gimmick

First off...I just got a stupid private message from a real idiot that aparently is so macho he can berate people that back him up...so I'm out for blood.

::Rant Mode ON::

DON'T TELL ME YOU THINK THIS IS CRAP...Unless you bought one and tried it yourself!

I don't care about the guy that know's your brother's friends roomates cousins moms doctors hairdressers brothers car that has one. I want first hand experience! Please...I don't want to but a 15Lb turbo on my car, it's already fun...I just want that little extra pep and I DON'T want to waste a bottle of N2O every week...

::Rant Mode OFF::

So If YOU have one or if you have seen one in use...personally...I'd like to know...If you have it, and it's crap, return it. If they won't take it, Send me a message, maybe I'll take it off your hands at half price.
 
umm i might be lost here, but dude are you trying to say this thing is worth it? look at the tornado.. its junk too no matter what thier site says.. go to speedoptions.com he have had many posts about it where people who bought it and said it was junk.. some say on a all stock car it helped a tiny bit.
but look at what the tornado claims.. to swirl the air coming in to mix and burn better.. by the time the swirled air hits the runners it wont be swirled no more.. them things are junk..
 
I don't think the tornadoair and the e-ram are the same (are they?) cause the tornado is just some sort of fan whereas the e-ram is "foced induction" =/
 
isnt the eram some lil fan that goes into the intake tract before the TB.. which is supposed to blow air into there.. umm im sorry but if it worked dont you think everyone would have one?
 
wow that was a fast reply :) no i think the e-ram has a k&n air filter, then 1 or 2 fans that are activated by a "nos type switch". it then takes the electricity from your battery i believe and blows air. But yes i agree if it worked, everyone should have one. Stilll noone is willing to try it...
 
Yeah man, just get that electric supercharger, The Tornado air intake sustem, a Pep-Boyz APC intake along with that Pep-Boyz Neon light exhaust tip and you'll get 100HP to the wheels.

Add some blue wiper nossels and shot some nawz into the electric supercharger and you'll run nines.


All of this of, course, is a waste of money and late night infomercial crap, save your money.
 
They have this on ebay and it looks like it wont work. Does anyone have one. Does it really help or am I better off using the $35 for beer?

My friend just ordered one for his '99 eclipse, If it does anything I'll let you know.
 
THis thing is a piece of junk. Don't waste your money on this ridiculous contraption. You'd be better off taping a hair dryer to your intake. (Don't do that either)
 
I heard sears has a sale on a $35.00 leaf blower! Maybe that'll do the trick....good for 25-35 H.P. But honestly i would save my dumb ass money and buy a turbo car from the factory and quit dreamin'....GET THE BEER

i am pretty sure what you are talking about is one of those electic fans you put on a intake pipe, i think that they are actually a bs kinda thing, in other words they really don't make any boost. a REAL supercharger doesn't use a cbv
 
I know a guy who got one....LOL all it is is a shitty PC fan LOL, it dont do much of anything, you could fart in the intake and get more performance:laugh:

I think that it's rather unfair of you to compare a simple mod like the PC-fan supercharger to something as fancy as methane injection. Of course the latter provides more benefit.
