Um a guy on our local forum that goes by the name of TORCH made over 10K selling those things to people on ebay..

Its fake junk


But if you take a leaf blower, and rig it up to your intake you will make a few ponies


A shop did it on a dakota, there was some vids floating around

I wanted to go Gas Leaf Blower on my 4cyl Corolla and rig the throttles up to be in sync LOL
My dad has a electric on in the garage that says 300mph, so that has to push a fair amount of CFM.

As far as the electric turbos, only one company really did make one for a real car that was produced.

If you were to make one, the best thing to do would be get a mini-torque starter motor and rig it up to a turbo compressor housing.

That is true and it really worked


But you could only use it for 15 secounds or somthing like that, so you might as well use nitrous instead
