I am sure that this is probably a scam, it looks like nothing more than an electric fan to push more air into the engine, but in basic theory, that should work. My thoughts are that you get what you pay for and this thing is more harmful than good. I was just looking for some thoughts from people who are knowledgeable about cars and could explain in layterms their thoughts on this. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1844954515

Sure it works...I hear that Ferarri is using them on the F-1 cars. Make sure you get one for the exhaust as well, to pull all that exta flow out ;-)

That's not near enough CFM to create any boost. Heck, the Eram has 750 CFM and only makes .5 - 1 psi. The Eram made 9 HP on my SE when she was about stock, not sure what one would do now. This one on Ebay is snake oil for sure.

its just an engin compartment exhaust fan for boats. you turn it on before you start the engin to get all the gas fumes out. If you actually think this will create horsepower save yourself some money and buy one from a marina for $10-15 or go to menards and buy a heating duct fan. (basicly the same POS thing)
