View Full Version : Anyone tried an electric supercharger? jordansportsfan 02-16-2007, 06:27 PM Anyone tried an electric supercharger, turbocharger? I know it's sketchy but even if it delivers a fraction of their claim it'd be worth it. I saw this www.superwhirl.com and www.electricchargers.com I think there's a few others. Anyone actually tried one? Thanks, Jordan OnRails 02-16-2007, 06:31 PM Quote: "As long as you don't add more than one superwhirl, the massive boost pressure created will not cause damage." LMAO lone_wolf025 02-16-2007, 09:09 PM Despite your sincerity in asking that question you're never going to find anyone who knows anything about proper modding with an electrically blown engine of any kind ken-x8 02-16-2007, 09:21 PM He's not sincere. He's a spammer. Whenever you see a post like this, with a link to some incredulous product, look at the poster's post count. Ken CarAndDriver 02-17-2007, 12:41 AM Spam!

I mean it all makes perfect sense! It's so right, how could it be wrong? And look: " Will this device harm my engine? No, the supercharger is completely safe for use on your vehicle. Full boost will not overstress your engine in any way. Maximum performance can be attained only when you need it. This can not be done with a traditional supercharger. Will this void my warranty? No, not if the supercharger is uninstalled before scheduled maintenance. Engine wear is not increased, so detection is not possible even with the most advanced diagnostic equipment. Traditional superchargers will always void warranties." They've thought of EVERYTHING! chickenwafer 02-20-2007, 12:42 AM Will this void my warranty?

HAHA, "no this won't void your warranty, just remove it before getting your car serviced!" That is too awesome. 1145climber 02-20-2007, 09:46 AM hahahahha this is ridiculous... i wanna hear a testimonial from someone who's bought one... Brettus 02-20-2007, 10:23 AM hahahahha this is ridiculous... i wanna hear a testimonial from someone who's bought one... You won't get one . Anyone that bought one will soon realise they have been had & be too embarrassed . 09Factor 02-20-2007, 11:05 AM It supercharges the A/C. So it blows colder.. 1145climber 02-20-2007, 02:08 PM You won't get one . Anyone that bought one will soon realise they have been had & be too embarrassed . i guess... but there wassssss a website that i think someone posted on the forum a while back, where they bought all the different cheap HP and MPG bolt-on additions and they installed, dyno-ed, and reviewed each one... i think the conclusion is that NONE of them come remotely close to working, and most just rob horses and miles... anyone know of the site?
