There's an article a couple months back in 5.0 about a guy that hooked up an electric leaf blower to the intake plumbing on his 5.0, said it pushed about 5lbs of boost. Now there's some bang for your buck!

Fasteddy...I can beat that one. I just added a 5.4L to my leafblower. Bye, bye leaves...and all the other vegetation in the county!

lovemyfx4, welcome to the boards. this topic has been discussed a little bit already. to answer your questions, no one really knows yet how good it is. air raid claims some big gains, but those have not been substantiated yet. people who have ordered them have yet to receive them because of productions problems at air raid. the general consensus around here is to wait and see when every company has something out. you can read a bit more about it in this thread from last week if you'd like. hope this helps.

and don't worry about what a blower is. Jackslapp wants to put a blower on everything. if you stick around you will come to enjoy Jackslapp's one-line solutions to people's technical problems. i know i do.

cheers.
