WTF is that piece of crap?????????

For an extra 20 odd horsepower you'd be better off buying a new air filter element or some crap like that.

I can't believe people actually try to market this rubbish, and have to do it by lying to their customers. If you bolt anything aftermarket to your new car here in Oz, you automatically void your warranty.

I also have a strange feeling that forcin large amounts of air into your engine isn't going to make it get up and go. And also if it's a 'turbocharger' shouldn't it be on the exhaust and not the intake? These people are idiots.

 

This has been posted SO many times now...I cant believe that people are STILL hawking that crap on ebay.

Plus, that would be a "supercharger" not a turbocharger.

I bought one.... It works alright its not like a real turbo that will throw you back a little.. I raced a Sunfire with some mods in my 84 Supra and the next week my buddy took this off his and i put it on, i beat him by half a car when i lost by half the week before.... it's not bad....

 

too bad real turbos aren't that cheap. Imagine if you could add 18 psi boost for $40 at the touch of a button.

 

You guys should consider buying this, I just ran a Very long section of silicon hose from my intake into my mouth, and whenever I blew....BOOM instant boost!

I cant even imagine what a electric one would do!!!!!


No on second thought, it's crap!

 

You know, these posts are great for ID'ing the newbies. It's also great for ID'ing the MORONS who allow ******** to stay in business.

That device can not possibly provide any boost.

AusZenki... You must be kidding. 20 HP from an air filter? Get real.

You say: "I also have a strange feeling that forcin large amounts of air into your engine isn't going to make it get up and go."

That's exactly why superchargers and turbochargers exist. You know, it's bad enough with ricers who don't know when to shut-up, but posting when you have no clue whatsoever....

sheesh.

Thanks for the unrelenting attack on me, really I appreciate it. And yeah, I am a newbie to the rotary scene.

Now, go out and buy a non turbo car at whack a massive turbo on it and see how far you get. Maybe some melted pistons.
My point is running a turbo setup is much more than just bolting on the biggest turbo you can find, which is what the ebay ad implies. Think about things like fuel and under bonnet temps.

Is it starting to make sense now?

The point is, its a crap product and it looks like a scam and a half.
