Default well...

some of my buddies and I playes with one on a D16A, and to be honest the car didnt feel any different for the most part. Now at WOT and higher rpms the car did seem to run a little stronger,but this is just the way it felt like, we didnt acutally wasted the time and efford to dyno it.

In a nut shell, there is a gazillion better thing to spend money on thatn IT,

take care Mario

Man...there are actually people out there that will buy this shit too.
Turbos work by forcing air into the cylinders at a greater pressure than that of atmospheric. This electric motor doesn't look like it would be substantial enough to do much more than impede air flow.

I love how they stick the Yellow comment box right over both pics of the "turbo", so you cant see what a POS it is!
