Video - Leaf Blower Bolt on Dyno pull

 

now theres an idea - a totally separate small gas engine for on demand forced induction.

 

thats funny as hell. now you're gonna see kids in stock ass crx's and jdm sweet saturn's with this set-up in em.

 

wow all that for ten extra hp not worth it

 

Old. Old. Old. Welcome to 2005.

 

what would be nice is if someone put a pressure gauge in so we could see if it actually pressurized the manifold at all

 

Doubt it pressurizes the manifold, but I can see it giving those small gains (10ish hp).

 

10 wheel hp is a decent gain. i would not expect it to pressurize the manifold too much. NA setups dont run that much boost unless built for it. I think alot of the power gain had to do with the nawwz going into the engine.

I think these guys just have too much time. Or its how they make there customers happy on their numbers

 

it would have had to pressurize it somewhere for the gains. the extra airflow for the extra power HAS to be present.

n/a is a very broad term...i've run 20psi out of an S-Trim on an 11:1 SCR motor. and im not talking about this leaf blower boosting 5 pounds or something, just decreases the vacuum, possibly to a point of slight pressurization. didnt look like a big enough blower to feed the air consumption of the 4.3L though, think it made more mid range power then max power.
