Electric Turbo/Supercharger

Would it be wise to buy an electric turbo/supercharger for the Maxima if I could buy the kit with it?

no, if it is from ebay for $50-100, they will just make your car slower if not break to pieces and go inside your engine. There is a new kit for like $2500 which looks like it could work but only for 20seconds. It's much better to get real supercharger/

NO! No, no, no, no, no, no.

You'll never see any real gains off of an electrc supercharger.

Not worth the $$

just like everyone has said, it won't work with much performance and is a waste of money.

it's not even the gains, it doesn't spin fast enough to even support a 3 cylinder motor. You can get those things for $20 they are designed for marine motors. Out motors will make that thing spin faster then it can and it will just fall apart and get sucked in the motor. Scam!!!
