i was lookin' through a thread and this link came up.

since i don't have enough money/time/expertise to turbo my car right now, would it give me any significant gains to just slap it on with a new intake? or is it just a gimmick?

I hope that this is a f**king joke!!!! That is junk & will get you laughed at at any meet that you attend. That is not a turbo. It's just shit on ebay designed to get your money from your pocket.

You are better off getting one of these and putting it next to your intake. Perfect color too.

please do not get this part. Some guy rolled up to our TGCNY meet rocking one of these and trying telling us that he gets boost from it. You will not get anything from it. In fact we spent about 3 weeks straight laughing at his expense. Their are no cheap parts when it comes to our cars, in fact most parts have to come from stuff designed for others and need modification to fit on ours. If you want a real turbo there are plenty of threads to check out, but please do not go for fake turbos.

didn't that guy try selling that G too?

anyways, don't get an electric turbo, save up and get a real turbo. and no electric superchargers either. head for the "turbo" section of the forum, you'll get all the true information there

Hell yes. If I didnt do my EVO swap the electric turbo also known as the LeafinatoR was my next choice for pure power. Notice the R on the end, thats for Racing.

Alright guys, enough with the jokes. No point to this thread, we established that all eBay electric turbos/superchargers are junk. :)
