  • Electric turbo??

    Ok I was out with some friends and they found and older Nissan with somethign they said looked like a turbo. they weren't really descriptive but it is electric 2 wires comingout of it neg and pos. if looks like a wheel with fins on it like a water wheel. and then a nossle about 1 1/2 inches wide goes into the headers. what is this I htink it was on a mid 80's nissan. they don't know what type. but it has an electric motor on it with a water wheels looking metal piece. I know my friends aren't the britest but what is it? engine cooler or something? they said they found 5 of htem on nissan's. anyone got any idea's? btw it doesn't have a tube going in or out for exhaust jsut that one tube into the engine.

                  Get a picture of it and post it. I don't think it can be positively identified without a picture.

                    Um, sounds like a big MAF or AFM sensor box.
