The Turbonator

Looks like a cheap fan that they are marketing as a 'supercharger.' (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/blink.gif)

I have a friend who has been chasing the idea of an electric fan in the intake like it was the Holy Grail for the past 20 years or so. I just don't seem to be able to get it into his head that no matter how powerful a fan you use, it ain't the same as boost. Oh well... if you're the kind of person who would buy a Turbonator, perhaps you'd also be interested in the magnet that goes on the fuel line and aligns all the fuel molecules for better power and gas mileage.
