Anybody familiar with it? And are they worth buying or absolute garbage?

There was a dyno up a while back with some Honda [RSX?] that they stuck a leaf blower to the intake, and it was a slight boost in power.


laugh.gif this reminds me of this guy I went to high school with. One day I was at the store and I saw him in the parking lot with his hood up. So I walk over and say "hey, everything alright?" and when I came around to the engine bay he had stuck a leaf blower down in the bumper and routed it up to his intake (this is on a late 80's early 90's 4cyl mustang auto) and zip-tied the throttle down at full. It was very fun to watch... until a few weeks later he blew the engine.. oh well..

If I had a 4 cyl mustang, I'd blow it up too.
