That is hilarious.
As Dear Abby says, if its too good to be true it most likely is.
They could at least shown it on a Marauder engine if your going to call it a MM electric supercharger.

Could you imagine Going to a meet pulling next to a s/ced MM popping your hood so we could all see ..or better yet being in a car show :rofl: :rofl:
... and, if you call now, we'll throw in the muffler bearing maintenance kit and the blinker fluid absolutely free.

WOW!
You can tell how much air that 'supercharger' moves just by looking at the size of the air filter!!!
I bet that you could get even more power out of that baby by running it on a Kenne Bell "BOOST-A-PUMP" voltage controller!
The POS 3000! Act now and we'll throw in a free Erector set so you can build your own wing! You'll need it to keep the back of the car on da groundz!
The POS 3000 installs in 3 minutes! Once you've installed the Flowbi...err POS 3000, run the supplied 8 feet of cable from your battery to your ballzack, then hit the gas pedal and the supplied toggle switch at the same time!
WHAM! You're flyin' dude!!

1200 CFM! WOW!
Wait a minute, let's do some math. A cubic foot contains 1728 cubic inches (12 x 12 x 12). Our four stroke 281 draws 140-1/2 cubic inches per revolution, and will draw in one cubic foot of air every 12.3 revolutions. 12.3 x 1200 = 14,760
14,760 RPM!
Don't get this thing guys! It'll blow yer motor!
Heeey! You don't think this is what happened to Mark? We all know what a performance addict he is. Do you suppose he...
Naaah. Couldn't be. :o
Well he did throw a rod right after the board posted it's first thread on this new "blower".
Aww that's just crazy man! He wouldn't keep a secret like that from us!
Would he? :(
Just kidding. Realistically this is what you could expect the thing to supply if that number is correct and the thing was volumetrically pumping the air in, which it is not...
...16 lbs boost at 923 rpm. (right!)
...8 lbs boost at 1,845 rpm.
...4 lbs boost at 3,690 rpm.
...2 lbs boost at 7,380 rpm.
Hmmm. Seems we're going backwards here. Torque must be dropping off just when we need it most! :rolleyes:
I wouldn't expect more from this than I would get from any of those cold air kits really, and that only if you were getting it's air through a cold air kit. :D
