Electric Superchargers

[Daf-T]

Can anyone tell me if there are any electric superchargers on the market worth buying? I've had negative views on the subject so far.

I've seen the eRam, Force Flow and NE Performance Inc Electric Charger on the net. All operate at around 1 - 2 psi, 30 - 45 amps and 800 - 1000 CFM.

Are any of them worth trying, or are all electric superchargers of this type useless?

I look forward to your sollective insights on the matter.
Thank you.

Hi Dave, They are all pretty useless. They have a minor impact at full throttle (WOT) and really are more trouble than they are worth. Sorry to be so down on them the concept is good but in practice it is a whole different story!

I agree with Wayne, the theory is right, but in reality, with fuelling and ignition taken into consideration they just don't work.

I wouldnt touch one of these with a barge pole, they are utter poo. A leaf blower would have more effect.

Don't joke, I've seen a video of some big american trusck on the rollers.. First they put a leaf blower on the inlet.. And then they did it with a leaf blower and then sprayed NOS over the leaf blowers inlet, so that it sucked it in and blew it into the cars inlet.. The results were actually ****ing surpising..

[fingers]

Yeah I seen that too. If memory serves me well they did it to a car too. Awsome results.

I'm just off to B&Q to get a 12V leafblower
