Ok, I have seen the ads in car and driver and all the car magazines about the 35 hp you can gain w/ this thing and I have read how it works but is this thing legitimate? Does anyone on here have one installed?

Nope, its not legitimate. It can actually hurt your hp.

Yes, it's total BS! They should be seued and shut down for false advertising! 35 HP gain my ars!

Every modification claimgain is almost BS. Come one 12 hp fromJUST an intake. More like 5-7 if your lucky. Meybe 12 with a tune.

It would restrict airflow. It's a POS.
Not to mention you dont want one of those sharp metal fins in your intake...

how much was ur electric supercharger? and does it work well?

smthomas, electric superchargers are POS's as well. I had the same question actually when I first joined the forum; I knew the eBay ones were junk, but I was curious if the idea of an electric supercharger would work if engineered by a reputable company such as Vortech or ATI. The fact relayed to me was that it would take a ton of electricity to spin the supercharger, so it's not practical.
