I was browsing cardomin.com and came across a kid with a TBI third gen with an electric leaf blower plumbed into his ducting plugged into a power converter. He claims a .5 sec. reduction in E.T... I checked on leaf blowers, and some can blow 200mph. Its only a $150 investment with the power converter, so im seriously thinking about it. I have TPI so i will have to come up with an air filter before the blower. I want my plumbing to be more sealed than his (pic enclosed). Will this work???? I will only hook it up for the track and turn it on at wide open throttle. Im i crazy???

Im all about budget racing, i have some cheap mods i learned from this site and other sources. check my webpage http://www.cardomain.com/id/2quikk4u

tell me what you think about this idea, it is amusing if anything!

 

yes, you are crazy.

dont do it

 

I read in one of the previous posts about someone having
2 hooked up...dunno about that one??
Seriously I wouldn't consider such a"mod" if you wanna call it that.

 

that blower actually netted him 9HP and 16TQ on the dyno over running the car N/A

 

wow! thats about half of that of a K&N

 

every little bit counts

 

What if he adds a K&N on top

lol that is an idea, just not a good one
Hope that guy doesnt make it to power adder forum

 

Considering that toros bigest blower only puts out 275 cfm it would cost you hp

 

CAN SOMEBODY PUT A BULLET IN THIS HORSE. IT HAS BEEN BEATEN AND NEEDS TO DIE.

 

YES I AGREE, THIS SHOULD BE A PROBATIONABLE OFFENSE.

 

Vortech A-trim puts out 350 cfm.

Something like a leaf blower would never create any boost, but it could very well possibly increase efficiency. I'd believe 9-10 HP.

Kill it...
a ram air set-up will produce better effects.
I started this thread on 4 different boards.....
I created a stir...


my duct tape ram air is better... check my page

 

At 110mph.
