anybody has the electric turbo charger???
There's one .org memeber that has one & likes it! He says it's a nice mod for the $$$
When I was 16 I once connected a hairdryer to the intake of my dirtbike and it did make a HUGE difference, and would rev up considerably faster. Of course I tested it in my garage & it was an 80cc single-piston motor.
The max is 3.5lit & requires way more air mass to run. So I would have to say that the fan would not generate enough oumph to move the air mass necessary to power your max.
But like I said:
a) There is one believer -> the guy that actually OWNS the E-charger.
b) There's everyone else that's a non-believer (that don't actually own one)
If you do the math, I believe you'll discover that it can't work as promissed. However, bees aren't supposed to fly either... but they can & they do!
If you purchase with a credit card - you always have the luxury of returning for a refund, if the product does not work as advertised. It's called CONSUMER PROTECTION. And NO you're NOT required to pay a restocking fee either! (this doesn't however apply to PAYPAL purchases)

I thought someone proved it can't work... or more accurately, that it sucked more power than it provided. Like someone said, search and you'll find it.
I'm interested in your 'consumer protection' comment. Please explain "And NO you're NOT required to pay a restocking fee either!". Now you've got my interest.

The first article below is the best IMHO :

I've done this 5-times already with products purchased online and in stores. I even canceled a hotel room hours after check-in, casue it was a dump. (in Canada) I did not get a cancelation fee or anything.
In the U.S.A. & Canada consumers RULE.
Also there is some kind of law that says "You can return ANYTHING you purchased, within a week (or so) after purchasing" I forget what the name is, but CAR DEALERS make you sign it when you buy a new car. That guarantees them that you won't be able to return the car, as specified in the "law_name_goes_here"
Didn't you sign that waiver? I always read & ask, before I sign. Always remember: consumers (=YOU) run the economy, have RIGHTS, and are always protected because of this.
