Ok, I saw this on ebay for $135 bucks and I'm wondering if this would raise the bs flag with anyone:

It sounds like rice to me but I would love to get a supercharget/turbo w/o having to pay thousands for one, but I don't want to get ripped off so could someone tell me if any of these pass the bs test.

Yeah.... a friend of mine saw these too... i think its BS.. plus it looks plastic and plastic seems like it might break and get sucked into the intake... guess thats why they have the MAF screen....if you read the feedback of buyers on ebay one says power gains not as described so im am guessing its crap

Just a gimmack and dont fall for it. Like j2 said if it breaks you will be buying a new MAF if not worse :(

Yea lol. Electric turbo's or Electric superchargers that are plastic are really "Bilge Blower" ---------------> they are fans for blowing water out of tubes on boats.
