Hey I heard of a company that made an electric one
with a 20,000 rpm motor. It was in super street mag.
last year or maybe.....2000 but I did see it. manufacture
claims it would boost upto 3psi with there double motor
system. Anyone else seen this?

Meh, just get a leaf blower <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>

Actually I have no clue, sound like a cool system but a bit too limited.

could it be called vortech system by any chance? i say go all turbo or go home. dont take shortcuts. those things arent proven but standard exhaust gas turbine turbos (whatever you call them) are proven and imo are GR8!

The so-called "Electric Supercharge" is utter bullshit.  It's just a shitty short-ram air intake (like any short ram system) hooked up to your electrical system.

There's no such thing as "cheap forced induction", otherwise we'd all use it instead of spending thousands for a turbo or a real supercharger. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>
