Above is an electric supercharger available on e-bay.
Apparently it can give your car up to 25% more power!
Below is a bilge blower also available on e-bay.
Apparently it is a fan for a boat......

Dar, have you thought of fitting an electric 'dump valve' as well, they are well fast
Funny you should ask about that, because I have looked at them. The problem is that I will fail the sound test at events since the one I wanted was 130db and most places only allow 100db flyby :( It's a shame really because it means that I will have to go to the trouble of modifying the engine at some point which is expensive.Quote:

There is a mk1 micra 1.0 with Turbo badges I've seen round Hinckley that has the mother of dump valves on it. every time he changes gear there is the biggest 'ptchussssssss' noise, it scares children.........
ahhhhhhhhhh good idea
they run so warm

Is it a dual charged Nissan March? That'd be coolQuote:

Proof right there that they work and all you have to do is strap it onto the front of the car an your have a square power graph cos it makes power all the time being a electric YO.
some guys strapped a leaf blower to there diesel truck and got nearly 50 horse more but you would need to tow it as it was so big
How about this:

Electric superchargers rule.
The real shame is that these people dont actually understand how an engine works, and how much blow you actually need before it becomes more effective than the sucking force of the piston itself.
But then, they wouldnt be selling them if retards didnt but them lol
that is the chav equivalent of a duck caller!!!!lollollolQuote:

VrrroooooomQUACK LMFAO

Cheap bilg that might buy one for my boat as ones there is bit lazy,prob the best use for them!
That's interesting. Why don't folk fit "real" superchargers then? Most just fit the hairdryer type.Quote:

I thought the new ones were 1600s? as with everyone else smaller cc for emissions?Quote:

Electric superchargers were the laughing stock a few years ago, ffs dont get drawn in thinking they actually work.
I'm not even going to answer.....lolQuote:
