Those things are pieces of sh it any way! When i sell those at my work, i sell them to people like grand ma and grand pa who can't hold up a real leaf blower. But oh well, what do you expect from an electric blower. No way would i do that "mod" to my car. I do have to admit though, it looks pretty trick! lol

Before my friend got an engine swap in his civic we were trying to blow up his old engine (I know, I know, I don't like civics either). AS A JOKE we hooked a gas powered leaf blower up to the intake with dryer hose and I held it in the passenger seat. It made the car a lot faster!

But is it practical? no. is it getteo? yes. Is it fun when you are bored with your friend and joking around? Hell Yes! Probably works better on small engines like a 4 cylinder.

I could picture it being fun, but I dunno about it being worth while.
