haha no man, u would have better luck hooking up a blow dryer.. thats just a fan, a fan just moved air.. it wont accully compress air (thats what a turbo does)... there is no way that thing will do much more then slow u down.. HP isnt cheap, there is no way around this.. if it seems too good to be true then it probily is.

If by "work" you mean restrict air flow, then yeah it'll work. ;)

Seriously, if stuff like this actually worked everyone would be using it. Who wouldn't want an extra 20 or 30 HP for less than $100.

People sell **** like this on Ebay all the time.

Will you car work after the cheap plastic fan blades fall out and get sucked into your intake manifold? Like BadMojo said, "if it actually worked, everyone would be using it."
