Default Electronic Turbo...

Hey all sorry if you've already discussed this, I'm really lazy at the moment and can't be bothered to search for similar discussions...anyways I saw this "intake turbocharger" on Ebay...it seems like it would make sense..is it worth it????

Well at least it looks like it would do SOMETHING, vs. that tornado BS.

But yeah wouldn't it just be a steady flow into your TB? Not controlled to your computer for a "boost" at higher RPM's? It's an idea... just not a well thought out one.

I'd try it out for $20, but sure as hell not paying $120US!

ive looked into it.. they push air out fast but with no cfm.. the cars electric system would not support a compressor that actually pushed alot of cfm.. Maybe when they go 42v.. and get some more amps behind it.... for now.. don't bother with it.

These do not work, because there is NO PHYSICAL WAY to have them actually work. I'm locking this, do a search in the future.
