I remember seeing a gag photo on an Escort site where some put a hair dryer on the intake (Sticking out of the hood!). I can imagine my weed-eater ( has a blower attachment...Ryobi, BTW, not a "Weed-Eater" brand) strapped to my hood with the motor at one end, sticking 4 feet in the air and the blower pushed through a hole in the hood....

IIRC Brad's SE with the E-RAM dynoed around 7HP higher than any other normal Duratec...

If it made 30HP I think we'd all have one by now!

This was actually done already with a escort. He had a cable running from the throtle of the gas leaf blower connected to the trottle body on the car, and it produced about 4 lbs of boost.

It won't work. No PSI boost.
The Eram is not junk.
It has been dyno proven by Brad Noon (bnnon) to give up to 30HP gains.



THIRTY HORSEPOWER ???? Nawww, really ? THIRTY ?? Don't seem possible, in fact, I got a buck that says it aint so.

Dyno sheet. Shows gains of 30HP at certain RPM points. Real world gains??? How about putting over half a second in the quarter on an SE that dynoed 10 peak HP higher than I did on the same dyno, same day... or being able to match/beat SVT times that dynoed 20 or more peak HP over mine in back to back runs? Probably won't work as well on a car with more mods than I had at the time, but for a fairly stock SE, I did very well that day...

BTW, look under the "K.C. '99 NATS" tab. I wasn't full throttle until after 3,500 RPM because the Eram was installed in front of the MAF, which caused the car to lurch on the dyno.
