Air Pump Mod
Crazy question here. Has anyone ever thought of converting the smog pump into a low power supercharger to feed air at low RPM? Before I do the math, I want to see what other people think.

fart on a friends head!!!
maybe if you forced it to stay on at all times. but seriously, import convert is right. the weight/hp level doesnt equal the weight/hp level of a new turbo. then, you gotta tune it. and it probably is highly inefficient, too.

You'd probably have better luck using your A/C compressor and use a very very very small pulley on it and it probably wouldn't hurt to grease the muffler bearings.
