hmmm what if you made a custom intake for like 20 of those things?
I wonder who actually buys those. someone must, cause they keep showing up for sale.

Doing a bit of cyber stalking, it appears that a surprising majority of the morons who bought that have bought odd teeth whitening stuff. Seriously. And because I'm a bit tuned right know I find that really funny.

I wonder if this thing actually works to some degree. The concept is solid, however the design is sub-par.

typical ebay scam - sell 150 bottles of mouthwash to get good feedback ratings, then swith to fake superchargers
note that the feedback saying "lots more power" comes from someone who was selling fake Dinan chips for $49
same guy ? could it be ????

I love how it says ".6 off quarter mile time" as if there are no other factors involved in that!!

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out the ridiculous inefficiency and complete lack of productivity that electric superchargers would have...
There's no way that little electric motor can flow enough air to make enough HP to compensate for (let alone add power on top of that) the extra strain it puts on the alternator and, indirectly, the crank.

The only way to get something like this concept to actually work would liklely be getting a small generator to power this thing. Then you have the weight issue.

If it worked it would be on all the new cars because it would help emmisions.
