I can't make this up. From the site.


The supercharger activates only when your floor the vehicle. The reason is the charger is designed to operate for no longer than 1 minute continuously because of its high velocity. This is not a problem, because if you ran your vehicle for 1 minute floored, you would be running over 200MPH.

Anyone want to bet every Honda will sport this thing?

I found that pretty amusing as well, not only the product but the fact that they installed it backwards.

There's a video out there where some guys threw a craftsman leaf blower on a Ranger and gained 50 hp on the dyno without any other modification lol! I thought about doing it to my '96 Geo Metro lol.

Nevermind. I found the video. It was only 15rwhp, but that adds up to about 17.6-18.75 hp at the flywheel.

but that was just a gas blower. I think you can get electric ones that put out more cfpm.
