"Unlike typical superchargers that get power from engine belts and can easily damage and blow cylinders, the Electric Supercharger gets its power from the vacuum inside the throttle body as well as the 12 V power supply from your car battery. Spinning at 150 CFM at 8000 RPM"

What a buch of crap, bwahahahahaa 150 CFM, that's just pathetic, and then the vacuum part under boost, where the H3LL do these geniuses get that from???

I would like you to explain how, under boost, that vacuum exists inside the TB. I won't even go into how much CFM a typical V8 injests in noramlly asperated form. But hey, good luck selling that faux supercharger.

lol i sent a very very nasty e-mail to the eram thingy askin why they market such bs and they sent me a not so nasty reply (still bs but not so nasty)

There is a guarantee and a warranty. IN FACT that guarantee gives money back if the eRAM doesnt produce the 5% gains on the dyno and the warrantee protects against manufactured issues. So, Yes, the eRAM works and works well. we use it on a professional race car as well, and we have been doing this for some time now. lots of skeptics, but when we meet them at the dyno, they arent skeptics for long. What are you talking about as far as speed. the eRAM axial flow compressor, is spinning at very high speeds. it produces a 1psi net positive change in the intake sytem, and thats where the 5% gains come from. remember , this is a 700 watt device, producing 900cfm in free air and drawing over 50 amps. so, you think you have "facts "on how it wont work??? funny, I have all the facts you need. just ask away and Ill give you the Facts of the device, our patent, and the principles around the axial flow electric supercharger. The reason we have a demo showing its thrust, is from thrust, anyone that has "facts"can see that if you have a 3.5 "diameter and are producing 3lbs of thrust, you can just plug that information in a formula and get the "facts"!!! you cant fool physics. by the way, have you had any science classes? if so, we can discuss further.

Hey, This is junk but go here.....

Go to www.electricsuperchargers.com

They have a promo video where the little fan hovers and then blows one of those quick starting paper fire logs around on the ground.

Its a pretty damn impressive little fan! It would probally kick butt on a little go cart or 70cc motorcycle!

What a total load of garbage.

If someone is ignorant enough to purchase one of those, then they deserve to be taken to the bank.

No they dont work. Im locking this.
