funny thing is the this thing could show some form of gains on a dyno, it may only be around 5hp but it's something

if you have extra money to blow buy it and do a before an after dyno

haha ive seen those before, they produce like .5psi if that, the extra weight would cancel out any possible "gains". I had an idea like this but to hook up a John Deere leaf blower to my intake haha...too bad the civic doesnt have enough room under the hood..

for those wondering im kidding
