    Re: $69.95 supercharger?

    I was jus thinking, even though its a scam, what would happen if you put a tornado BEHIND the throttle body of a boosted car, the swirling motion will increase velocity but for how long itll spin before its burned doesnt seem like a long enough time to do it. Maybe if you intake tube was 5" diameter and you had one of these it might do something, theoretically if straight air gets pushed through it it WILL SPIN the air. But that might only be beneifical in a carbureted car, but then you dont have the boost to push it through and you are relying on the engine sucking it in, which I dont think itll swirl that way because its sucking air stright in and itll probably stop spinning immediately because of the way the motor pulls it in, but if its pushing the air in constantly it should keep the spinning velocity.

    Re: $69.95 supercharger?

    for a carb, i can understand the Tornado. When we have efi cars with runners going to each cylinders, i doubt if the swirl motion before it would do anything. The reason being that the fuel is added at the very end, not at the TB opening, on the other hand, the Carb sits before the runners and hence a less turbulant flow will allow proper mixture at the carb and then is distributed amonth the runners, but the injectors sit at the very edge of the runners and the swirl effect is not gonna do much.

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...RK%3AMEWA%3AIT

    what a waste of money, dude. If you want a supercharger, SAVE that 69 bucks. Those probably steal so much power from your car, not to mention money from your wallet

    I just want to try it unless someone who has actually used one can tell me that it doesn't work as well as advertised... Until you have actually tried it then you have no ground to stand on. I don't know whether it will work or not but at least I can sell it to some ricer for as much as I payed if it doesn't work... ha

    if you wanna personally try it with spending your money and then learning from your experience that it does not work, be my guest. By the way it is designed, its not gonna work. There is a reason why the centrifugal, roots and screw type are designed in teh way they are designed and dont run on 12V battery supply pulling like 5 amps. THere are many engineers and personal mechanics on this forum who know and can tell just by looking at something that if its gonna work for certain application or not, hence they have theoretical evidence that it will not work as advertised.
