Figure11 Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 Noooooooooooo Runaway!!!!!! These are a con for most engines. There is an article about them (there are a number of different kinds) on an Aussie website. It's all to do with the amount of air they are capable of flowing. Generally it is less than your engine can draw in by a quantum margin. There was one type of these fans that had some positive aspects, but by the time you had fitted the second alternator to provide the ampage it needed to run you lost all the HP gains in running it! The price says it all! Linky Another Linky Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joylove Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 Thank goodness this eBay seller has bought us this revolutionary product. All motoring manufacturers with their multi-million pound R&D departments sure have missed a trick here, buy buy buy now now now!! ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FBFsussex Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 this is the same as companies that claim the 'special' oil they sell will make your car run better and for longer, if that was possible then mobil 1 or castrol would use the same stuff in the mainstream oils. if these turbo things were any good all manufacturers would use them from factory.

bigtone Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 1. All wind and pi$$ 2. Might have guessed it would be from the USA. The only good thing about Americans is that most of them are on the other side of the Atlantic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
