30% more power for 70 bucks
yeah right! hahaha and when you are done figuring out that it doesnt make any power, you can install it on the ceiling of your bathroom to get rid of that poop smell...

It's a piece of ****. My friend sold 1 to me before and it's supposed to be more fuel economy according to him but the fuel economy is worse on the highway

Ha Ha that is funny I made this for my CRX in Grade 12 mechanics as a project and I think I ended up get an A for it... I called it The "Aircharger" system back in '92. I wonder if I have the drawings and specs of it some where? I used a servo system hooked up to the tach so as the rpms went up it, it would blow more air into the engine! It seemed to work better the just putting a k&n filter in... The problem is with a electric turbo is trying it to get it to spool the speeds you can get a turbo to spool at, with out spending the bank. The stupid thing is Air charger is a trade marked name now and that some on is probably making something off this! Crap I could have been a millionaire

Purchasing and installing one on an Impreza should be an automatic ban!!!

well you could use AC to dramatically cool an air to air intercooler but the parastitic drag on the engine from running the AC compressor alone would defenately kill any gains in HP.

I find it funny how they feel the need to explain the firing cycle of a 4 stroke engine.

Loomin, what if you have a small auxiliary motor that drives the ac to cool down the air??? we can sell this idea on ebay and make a fortune!!!
I wonder why people don't think its a scam... |
