E-Charger

Has anyone tried an E-charger? Claims of giving 1psi to the engine?? Looks and sounds like it might work. but just like the resistor chip that claim 25-35+ HP it may be crap. I did have a buddy that put a electric blower on his intake at the track and he did run better than without it!! it was pretty funny though and very impractical...we had to take off the hood and hard wire the battery! but the car ran faster down the track though. Thats why i want to know if these more compact E-chargers might work??? would be cool if they did!!! no many bolt on for our trucks..the market sux for us!!

Speed cost money, no such thing as cheap speed.

we have every bolt everyone else has. You just have to know where to look.

no way think about that a regular supercharger makes boost with the rmp of the engine, that fart fan pushes the same amount of air if you are cruising or stoped, its like wiping before you poop it dont make sense.

i understand that i may be a new member but i know a little bit about how that works. but dont the push more air in than it would normally. I understand what everyone is saying. I would almost like to buy one and put it on the dyno to see any hard results. Heck some only cost like 50-100 bucks....who knows it might work or it might be a pile of poo but have any of you tried one thats what im saying can you say for sure that it 100% doesnt do crap! every one just talk thories.

Save your money and just grab your mom's/wifes/gf's hair dryer and wire that in, same result, just set it to cool.

GAdude2002,

You should also get the SLR Chip & stack the two.
