Ok...THE ACTUAL BLOWER to the motor is a test proven fact! It willl increase HP! DUHH your ramming air into the engine like an F/I application.

How can you compare a 8hp gas fed motor to 12V Electric S/C? Yes there is such thing as a Electric Blower but you realize how small they are and how much less HP they have?

Just a waste...surprised with your "knowledge" you would even post something like this.

When modding your TOY think of this....

YOU GOTTA PAY to PLAY!

OR there is an actual kit that you can buy that DOES push 15 PSI with electric. it uses a modded roots style blower with some other work to it

This is the entire reason I asked this question, I'd seen cars hooked up like this, actually I know someone with one, he calls it his under two build lol cause he self made most of his mods XXD

Don't feel too bad there Davyboy. I went through the same line of thinking myself...

My thought process was;
- cool!
- dope!
- Damn, I wish that would work.

Although one good thing came form this. I found a site that sells shaved butterflies and ported throttle bodies.

So I saved $$ and had our garage shave the butterfly for me.

And it works like a charm! I'm still looking for a spare TB for it to be ported for me.


Any thoughts about a furnace fan though?
