Hey all. just seeing if anyone on here has bought the item in the below link

http://www.ebay.ca/itm/5PSI-ELECTRIC...#ht_3133wt_897

Would this item help get air into my engine?

any HP gains if you have tried it?
Any potential damage?

Very curious. I do not think it is a supercharger or will give me any gains like that but I thought it could not hurt to increase my air flow.

Thoughts?

Yeah I think I'll pass. I have a CAI and off road exhaust with a tune already. I was just thinking if this would help it would be a cheap option to help your car breath. After I thought about it for a while I realized that when the fan is not on it would just restrict my air flow.

I will just spend my money on my 4.10 gears.

Thanks

I'm surprised that has shown up on ebay again, considering the fail that it is. I suppose someone will be stupid enough to buy it.

If you would like to donate 170$ to my car fund, be my guest; it would probably benefit your car more than adding that thing would. (AKA you at least wouldn't lose power)
