1)Go to wal-mart
2)find the most powerful hair dryer you can find
3)hook it up to intake, take out heating element and plug power into a AC/DC converter

"This is the original patented eRAM electric supercharger. (Patent Number 6,328,024) (NEW IN BOX with all wiring and instructions) The eRAM will produce air flow of 908CFM (actually measured at SEMA 2001 on a flow bench)and up to 1psi of pressure to most engine intakes. Regardless of your fuel metering system (i.e. MAP,MAF, AFM, or even carburetor), the eRAM will add 5-6% more Hp to your engines performance. Ideal for use on existing air boxes or Cold air/Aftermarket intake tubes, the eRAM is easy to install and is race and dyno proven to work on most all models of automobiles. We used it on our Speedvision World Challenge GT Porsche and has been used successfully for over 3 years, as well as having documented HP gains at independent dynos. Many other cars have been tested with the eRAM with gains ranging from 7-14hp."

Who wants to bet there is no "Speedvision World Challenge GT Porsche"...?

also whatever hp that is increased by the eRAM would be a lot less then the run that thing. 700W is a lot of juice to produce.


You can't get more than what you put in. So they say 700W = 1hp (or almost) then you'd be lucky to get .5hp. that would make it 50% efficient.

1 psi roughly equal to 8-15 HP, depending on application. It says.. "up to 1 psi"... so... you might get 5 HP out of it... that's not unreasonable.

Not worth the time, money, or risk of some tiny piece of cheap plastic breaking off and making its way into the intake.

I also agree with dakar... its likely that it'll make more of a drain on the engine than it helps.


obvious ebay scam... it sounds legitimate, but its not.
