whats are they ? whats the concept behind them?

[lee330sport]

It effectively is trying to copy the same principles as a supercharger/turbo by using rotors to force extra air into the cylinders. But these things just cannot produce boost, for starters they need to spin higher than 25krpm more like 100k and secondly its positioned in the air intake which would block more air rather than force any extra in. Absolute joke. Hair dryer would produce more power.

i was gonna say.. get a power convertor and ur missus's babylis hair dryer and celotape it onto your manifold (anywhere doesnt really matter) and thats like an instant 0bhp :):):) but you do gain 2kg's and loose battery power:)
