Why? It'll work on a beater or just for fun. I wouldn't do this to a car that I really wanted to keep running right but it does work, and it works well for the price. We're talking maybe $70 for the blower, and maybe $20 for a filter or whatever, and possable $20 in piping. And those are high estimates. That's $110 for maybe 20hp. So, around 5.50 per hp. Pretty cheap.
