AN AVERAGE INSTALL TIME IS 1-2 HOURS START TO FINISH THE KIT ATTACHES DIRECTLY TO YOUR INTAKE.THERE IS A P.O.S. TO ATTACH TO THE BATTERY AND ITS A BITCH TO CONTROL THE SYSTEM

Don't forget to use bigger injectors when you install that thing! Otherwise you'll run lean and blow your motor. LMFAO!

I saw a similar ad (marine bilge blower for $40) that warned against buying the 19.99 blowers. Don't waste your time on their scam, when my scam is so much better!

That is halarious. It looks like a fan you would mount on your dashboard if you didn't have A/C. It boggels the mind to think that someone would actually put that in there car.

You really do have one?? I am serious, do you have one? Concept wise, it might work, but I am afraid that product won't able to flow as much as my engine demand.... 250CFM.. does it sounds reasonable?

Telling you the truth, I am quite interest about this product, I may not use it on the car, but I might test it on my Jetske or dirtbike

Someone please hit me back... maybe tell me more info about that product and where I can find it?

THANK YOU

I hooked two of those babies, in series, up to my FD! So now I have the only Quad Turbo FD! I'm putting down like 656 rwhp at 37 psi with this setup.

why waste your money on something like that, when your car comes with something better for free, thats right, with a few "well placed cuts" your air pump can be turned into a SUPERCHARGER!
