E-RAM supercharger

i was browsing about and i came across an electric supercharger so i looked into it and it seems legit. it pushes 1 psi at WOT or a dual fan model putting out 1.7 psi at WOT. its installed between the MAS and the throttle body. they advertise it works on late model mazdas but im wary about it and its not exactly cheap (almost 600 for the dual fan model and 300 for the single) does anyone have any experience with the E-RAM electric supercharger or know of anyone who has??

You may as well install a PC case fan in there, it'll do just as much good. It probably actually lowers power due to an additional intake restriction (it may break even with it on).

Get a turbonator, those things make mad powah! (not really, also a scam)

Be very sceptical of those easy power claims. If you're not sure, ask someone who knows more, or post a question in the forum (if a search doesn't reveal the answer). Those eBay +20hp power chips are also a complete scam.

If you want more power get a less restrictive intake and exhaust.

I remember seeing an ad in Sport Compact Car for an electric supercharger. It advertized "15'000 Watts of Power". I believe it was made by Thomas Knight Turbochargers. Said it was only good for short ~15 sec burst of power, made 4-6 lbs of boost.

The picture in the add looked like a mini roots type blower. I don't know where the extra electricity came from to run it ( x-tra battery, big capacitor maybe), or how it by-passes when not in use. I think it was made for small displacement piston engines. I don't think there's any way something like this could keep up with a rotary.
