  • Is this Turbo Kit Legit???

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=1865012691

    I have a feeling this doesn't do what it claims. What does everyone else think or know?

      Flowing at 105 CFM.. I think that would slow your air intake down.

          Why does ebay still allow these ads? I would consider all that misleading information. I would feel horrible taking 200 dollars from somebody knowing that I sold them a boat gas tank blower. How can this possibly be legal?

            I suspected as much. Hell the auction is up to $222 at this time. I can't believe such a scam is allowed! Thanks for the info everyone!

              Don't think that one's actually a marine exhaust gas blower. They do actualy make electric blowers rated at 1-2 PSI. But I'm not sure what this is.

                Ummm...It looks very much like a flue exhaust fan from a new high efficiency gas furnace. Plus if it is on the intake it would be a supercharger not a turbo...I'm officially raising the flag!! [img]graemlins/bs.gif[/img]

                  Most of these kits I have seen on ebay are actually "bilge" pumps for a marine application. They are designed to pump exhaust gases out of an engine compartment. I have seen a few boats where they have been mounted to pull more air into the compartment. I think it would be crazy to think an electric fan that flows 1-200 cfm max would out-flow even our small 600cfm throttle bodies. For this fan to add an extra 1-150 cfm it would need to be rated at least 750cfm. If anybody is interested you can get the same deal for about 25.00 in 3 or 4 in sizes. Just look up a boat parts supplier and search for bilge pumps.
                  I have made a lot of money in my life, most of which I spent on cars and women.<p>The rest I have blown.
