what those things claim to do is to add 20hp but all it really is, is just a small little fan that you put in-line with your intake and ground it then hook it up to your battery. They even give you a switch to toggle it off and on. When you get it the package claims that this "mod" adds 20+hp. And also that it uses only 5 amps of power and get this, it produce so much power that it produces 500 cfm of airflow at only 5 amps of battery power. A T78 turbo uses about 100 amps of power and produces about 950 cfm or so depending on the boost. So thing about it, what they are trying to say is at 10 amps of power you can get 1000cfm of airflow. I think not. Also to make matters worse, when you are at idle the "mod" is still forcing all that air into your car. And there is no protection to stop those little plastic fan blades from breaking off and going into your engine. I don't know about anyone else but I would rather pay the money for a real turbo or a real ECU mod from JET or somewhere like that. Than have to risk ruining my engine and end up having to buy a new engine because there is plastic in it or pay a mechanic to get it out. And probably end up buying a turbo anyway cuz the 4 dollar mod didn't work. That's my $.02 Decide for yourself.
