JEDScontour, I'm not saying it did work for a fact. i'm saying I have heard the rumor that it worked also. Maybe a search will find something...Oh well, you seem pretty set on your thinking.
Edit: Couldn't leave well enough alone...This is quoted from Demon of all people:

At 100% efficiency this will generate roughly a 10-13HP increase at the crank on the SVT engine. (8-10 wheels) Then factor in the alternator will draw about 2HP back to supply the electricity. The battery takes the brunt of the "initial" current draw. Sustained draw comes directly from the alternator though!
So "technically" you could get a maximum gain of 6-9 wheel HP at 100% efficiency for ~$300. Not bad HP per dollar for our car really.
However make sure you have a good quality battery (optima for instance) to help with the added strain on the electrical system. Also alternator replacement interval may be sooner too.
The ERAM is not a "joke", though it is not as awesome as the information would make it look.
The EBAY junk is a joke. Plain & simple.
This is from BNoon, who actually had one:

I have actual dyno proof that the E-ram worked for my Contour SE to the tune of 9HP peak and lots more off peak with the same intake pipe and filter on the car for both runs. I don't see this guy's dyno proof that it didn't work, as he claims it didn't. He knows a little about thermal dynamics, but very little about electrical loading (saying it only pulls about 15 amps, DUH! He measured it free air!!!). He can't even dechypher Mark's email correctly RE: the unit pictured vs. as pictured. Very little information on that linked page
So, I think that pretty much sums it up for me, how about you guys?
