Why don't you buy 1 and review it for us

 

[Ben CTR]

Surely there must be someone on here already that has tried it?

 

[jedi knight]

How about testing 1 of these as well

buy a resistor from ebay for about 2p and put in the right place will do the same thing. tis a complete waste of time. and will probaly do more harm than good.

These are all 4,000 gauss Magnetizers.

Well that's sold it to me!

The electric turbo generates 250CFM of forced air into your intake

Now I reckon my 1.8T sucks about 320 CFM of air at 5000 rpm (without taking boost into account), so fitting one of these would be like sticking my hand over the end of my CAI?

no dave you MUST be wrong, why would they lie?

Yes, I suppose so, you can't argue with facts, my maths must be wrong. Plus, it makes a noise like a real supercharger (do they mean one that actually works?)

 

[cordobabrendy]

you can dry your hair and inflate dinghies when on seaside holidays too!!

No, hang on a moment, I've read further.

A stock turbo from an Audi 1.8T produces 400CFM. Adding an Air Intake Blower will produce more then half of the power than a stock Audi 1.8T turbo would but you don't need to do any modifications to your engine.

So their claims a wrong - I should be looking at another 75bhp plus, rather than the 25 they are talking about! Safe advertising, obviously.

a friend fitted one of those "+15 bhp" on his toyota Matrix and it did NOTHING... his 1/4 mille times didn´t change, and we live at sea level!!.. and the electric super charger.. COME ON! if you install it on a turbo charged engine it will be sucked up when the turbo comes alive!! hahahahahaha..
