I purchased a 2.5 psi electric supercharger and tried installing yesterday and ran into some issues, has anyone ever installed this before? if so some help would be greatly appreciated.
here is the link where I ordered the sc.

You bought that? Really? Why?

 

I have a feeling you just wasted $225. You should of gotten before and after dyno runs. I highly doubt it makes 2 psi by a spinning, electric powered fan blade.

Many manufacturers like General Motors, Ford, Mercedes Benz, Pontiac, Jaguar, and Lotus use superchargers on their highest performing models to increase horsepower. You can get the same technology for a fraction of the cost.......not quite the same technology

 

So where is the punch line here?

 

WOW.
I mean, wow. What cfm does that thing run? This guy realizes that psi is independent of cfm and dependent more on backpressure than anything? What kind of juice does this thing require?
Honestly I have to say I'm very interested in this project. Call it morbid curiosity or whatever but I'd like to help. What kind of issues are you having? Modifying the stock airbox? I'd say pick up a spare airbox off car-part.com and take a chop saw to it, removing the maf sensor. Next go to Autozone and pick up a Spectre air flow kit with the tubing you'd need to run the intake cone under the batter (assuming you have the clearance).
If you're having a problem with electrical it's probably most likely finding a suitable power wire? Make sure you find one that comes off ignition so the fan doesn't run constantly. Good luck! (LOL)

 

Updates?

 

We may never get any real-world numbers on this mod. Oh well...

 

Yeah please share your experiance, i have a customer that wants me to put this in for him. I keep trying to talk him out of it.
And since thats a performance chips site to thats another no no. I just had a shop bring a 05xjr in they had put that chip in between the mass air flow sensor and ecu to lie to the ecu. The car started running like crap and went into restricted perfomrance. They removed it but couldnt get codes to clea, so they sent to me. I couldnt them them all to clear either and suspect they toasted the $4000 ecu. They werent happy and didnt want to pay more than the initial check out fee to find out for sure...

 

Sorry, couldn't resist.

 

I'm not an expert by any means, but these types of gadgets never work and frequently cause damage to your engine as BRUTAL noted above. There is a reason that ECUs, blower pulleys and the like cost a fair bit of money is that the companies selling them have spent a lot of time and money sorting them out. I would stick to the mainstream companies like Arden, Paramount, Eurotoys etc.

 

How about one of these? Replace your aircleaner with it during the weekday and use it as a leafblower on the weekends.

 

Here is the update. I did not get it to work so I sold it to a corvette guy for what I paid for it.

 

Its likely that you could get a 2psi increase on the outflow....
but thats just at the neck of the unit. At the intake valves is where you want that.
To be honest. A CAI kit would give better results than that fan.
