FUNNIEST thing. I remember a kid in my Auto Shop class a year ago actually bought one to put into his dodge avenger thinking it would dramastically increase his horspower. He even tried to put it in but was let down because the leaf blower *ahem* i mean electric supercharger ^_^ didn't get any power because the unit was bad. So in the end he was down $150 bucks and left with a broken leaf blower LMAO!

ROFL! People who purchase those things, believing that they're going to notice a performance difference-I mean, a GOOD performance difference deserve bad units! I always get a good chuckle out of those things.

You actually would make some extra power on the 1.8! So guys I know checked it out on the dyno and made an extra 10 whp on the dyno with a low hp car. It wouldn't work on higher hp cars though, there it would be a restriction.

That's about a hundred times longer than my last SBR turbo lasted......
