Title: Hucksters on Ebay: Turbospiral
Post by: saurkraut on January 12, 2009, 02:11:42 pm
Found this while searching for Rabbit parts.  I haven't seen these befor.  I can't believe people buy this crap.  :roll:

I wonder how long it takes for the bearings to take a dump and frag the engine?

so wtf... it just spins from the normal suction of the motor... and thats supposed to increase efficiency?  

i could almost see this work on a carbureted engine, but not on a fuel injected motor... depending on where the fuel is injected though...

better get the leafblower (http://videos.streetfire.net/video/Leaf-Blower-Bolt-on-Dyno_7514.htm) turbo!!!

I had a friend order the "expensive" electric super charger back in the day. It made about 1.5psi of boost and came on only @ wot. It sounded neat but I assure you it had a very high Horsepower-per-dollar figure.

This ebay crap destroys innocent teenager's precious modes of transportation on a daily basis. :roll:
