And to think I paid $7.4K on a supercharger when I could have had one of these!! Where was this a year ago?!:cuss:

Just think at that price you could do TWO of them! Can't imagine the power that would make! Can you get it in a polished case?!

I bought 10,000 of them. Quite price competitive with the Paxton. Can't seem to get the car started anymore - battery discharges too quick!

out there somewhere are videos of people hooking up leaf blowers to their cars on a dyno and actually picking up HP! this looks like basically the same thing to me. believe it or not, this may actually work for a few ponies.

has anyone hooked up nitrous to this thing yet?

I bought one about a month ago. Joseph Dell will not let me post my new dyno sheet because he wants to keep the bragging rights of "most RWHP RT/10"

That toy may be funny.. yet with a separate battery source powering an electric supercharger (not referring to that plastic toy) may be feasible one day.. check out this electric bike. The controller for the series to parallel dual motor setup is interesting reading.

Considering the power drawn from your engine to spin a supercharger, the extra weight of the power pack & motor could more efficient(?). Why not control / charge the power pack when the supercharger is not needed / in demand? That bike is getting 350 hp from 161 lbs of batteries so I assume less batteries are needed for a s/c, surely there's power needed to charge / maintain them, but if you could charge your supercharger pack at home, some electric cars are getting up to a 250 mile range on the current generation of batteries. They also mention the batteries like heat (yet not for long life), getting heat from a Viper is an easy task. It'll be like the old Road Warrier Mel Gibson movie, just hit the switch..

Do I detect sarcasm Mr. 1496 rwhp maker? Good work.

The only reason I could think of that electric blower would be to dry the passenger seat after a ride in that RT/10.
