just a crazy idea:p
 
could you POSSIBLY instead of taking the air pump out use it as a mini supercharger by rerouting it to force air into the air box...just a crazy idea what is yalls input?? :D

It doesn't move enough air to provide any benefit.

ther was a thread on this not too long ago, check it out and see what you think.

hehe the other threads have some good points...to bad they dont make a supercharger that would fit there in its place though it would be kinda small

Like breathing through a straw.

Next time your looking at a 13BRE, disconnect the TB duct & gun the motor.
It's a real eye opener on how much air a turbo pushes.
A professional leaf blower ain't even close.

I am closing this before it gets out of hand like the 20 other threads on this question have.

the short of it, there is not even enough air from any air pump to increase the air pressure for even one rotor (or piston on non rotary engines) even 1 psi, and infact would result in a major loss of HP.
