yes, it would actually be a restriction in anything more that a small lawnmower.

I wonder why there are 6 plug wires coming off the top of the fan shroud?

that thing is a joke. it's been talked about so many times. though my honda might be able ot make use of one, but that is only cause it sucks and doesn't take much air. and anyway i want the real thing on the honda.

Visteon (ford) makes an electric supercharger for small displacement motors. Needs its own dedicated power supply, battery, and direct drive generator, though, do to the power requirements. Little electric motor wont cut it. Youd probably at least need a dozen horsepower or so for a small engine.

hahaha

They say that thing pushes 500cfm...

Well, figuring a 500cfm carb would be a big restriction (still vac in manifold @ WOT) for a stock 350, you would need 2 of those before you came close to creating any boost!
