aw, that's cute!!!

lets see, $300 US for a 1 PSI fan, they claim 5% increase in power... atmospheric pressure is approx. 15 psi, so a 5% increase in power assumes a compressing efficiency of 75%, completely believable for that type of impeller. Looking at their claims, I believe them. They mention the fan draws 50 amps which is approx 1 HP to drive this... so this will tax your electrical system...

Is it worth it, would I be caught dead with that on my car...... NO!

just get a good exhaust and intake and you would get better gains....
