electric turbos/superchargers are a gimmick they dont work. Just google it you will see eleventy billion threads about this on just about every car forum out there.



EDIT:

i take that back there is one ill see if i can find the info on it.... it does require 4 additional batteries to run and it only gives you 5 PSI for 15 seconds then it drops down to 2 PSI which is a joke because with all the additional weight the 5 PSI is pointless.
