I have never seen this before...

i was looking around at Prelude stuff on Ebay when i came across this... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2415092172

It claimed to be a turbo kit but it dosn't use the exhaust flow to spin the turbine, it looks like it is a motor that is spinning inside the intake cone. Looks pretty cool i guess, any thoughts on this?

The electric supercharger? Another wasteful idea along with the solar powered flashlight...

well if it is done right, i'm sure it could induct slightly or alot more air into the manifold, i've just never seen this before and i was checking out his feedback and apparently, this is the only one is selling or has sold.

here is a trick put your hand near your intake then rev the engine to about 3K

does it fell like it's going to suck your hand in

Now put your hand infront of a vaccum cleaner hose (the little electric motor on that turbo and most others) no too much there
