ELECTRIC TURBO

[TLRMAN12]

Put wings on it and it might fly..

[drjim86]

The hot side of a turbo (part connected to the exhast) is the turbine.

The cold side of the turbo (part connected to the intake) is the compressor.

This crap is neither a turbine nor a compressor. This is a fan.

[DJMC5ive]

Is it just me or does this guy look straight out of the early 90s

[Kedakari]

I hear for these to even have the amount of compression to give any boost that it needs so much electricity that the draw from the electric motor becomes a parasitic load on the alternator and kills any 1-5 HP boost you might get off your intake weed wacker.

[jklsd]

So it can lift itself up a little bit... That doesn't mean it can produce pressure. If it flowed as much as even a small turbocharger like a T3 and you tried that it would fly away like a freakin' bottle rocket.

[barreltrollololol]

Ricers come in all ethnicity.

[xxdarkheartsxx]

dude. thumbs up for a good hand hell leak blower.

[jpriki1234]

the installation is easy ? and where do you connect your electric turbo ? how you connect that ?

[baggyaxewound]

@jpriki1234 + and - works well with electrics

[LT1HILLINGHOE]

A duralog bag with a washrag in it being blowed by a blender motor.....how cute.

[gargantus5]

Who needs roost when you have KIRBY! FTW!

[sinister99gt]

that just convinced me , i am taking off my kenne bell and installing one of these bad boys.

[hosmelbanshee]

hola donde puedo comprar uno de estos y cuanto cuesta panama panama

[3geclipse86]

I don't get it.

[erdoganog]

i put 3 of these in my subaru so now my subaru has 4 turbos 1 real and 3 fake

i gained like 500 hp untunned

[FreakyKing2]

@erdoganog dude u need to upload a video of that shit. I'm thinking about putting one on my spec-v sentra and I just need to see some solid proof that this thing is legit. plz

[JAMESS30288]

@FreakyKing2 ricer fag!

[FreakyKing2]

@JAMESS30288 and what do you have?

[Topatsi]

BULLSHIT turbo, wake up people and start use some REAL STUFF.

peace

Finland

[234167]

hahaha,you blow more air with your mouth than with this shit

[KmAlbum]

too much air. Will make your Air/Fuel mess up.

[DimebagCFH4Life]

Sadly i saw a civic with one of those...ricers have reached a new low...

[g4ebguy]

@DimebagCFH4Life no.. sadly when i was 16...*sigh* i ordered a $75 turbo whistler.... lets just say.... that was worse then when i banged a fat chick... now im 20 getting my degree in automotive, driving a dsm, and very happy with a mildly modified hyundai accent. I/H/E stripped interior bla bla... but anyways... yeh it was bad.... and i was desperate...yes i have owned a turbo car and know that $75 bucks should have been put to strippers

[DimebagCFH4Life]

@g4ebguy Lol dam ive never had a turbo car but i bet its awesome XD.ive had V8's most of the time

[fraguzz]

WOW was that crackers in there?? WOW that said it seems more powerful than i had thought.. still dosent work..

[bykashka75]

well idiots are everywhere

[g4ebguy]

@bykashka75 ..........remember the ppl that made bubbles in water and hooked it up to a vaccuum line saying it made hydrogen and gave the car 25% more power and gas milage.

[somuchgreater]

whats the point of this shit, a turbo is meant to compress air, not suck it in. BULLSHIT WASTE OF MONEY

[sp00nix]

@somuchgreater .... to compress the air it has to suck it in first.

[somuchgreater]

@sp00nix Right. But a electric fan doesn't compress anything

[sp00nix]

@sp00nix Anything over atmospheric pressure is considered compressed. Although not much to do anything, it is compressed to some point. Even .1 PSI would be boost.

[TheSqeeek]

Fan output = maybe 150CFM. Engine intake of my honda = 300ish CFM at full throttle. Putting one on your truck = FAIL. I like Riddco's idea, give it to Patrick Swayze.

[Riddco]

Patrick Swayze showing you his new vibrator = Priceless!

[lancelo96]

LOL you have to be moving 150 mph to get 1 psi from ram air hood scoops. they are more like a cold air intake than a turbo!

[zech007]

Awesome pocket sized leaf blower!!!

FAIL at TURBOCHARGING

[carlostorres1778]

@zech007 its a jet pack prototype lol

[bh754ng]

where and possible to acquire it?????? please risp

[DaNuke1810]

@bh754ng ebay man

[kakashishrngn]

strong enough to work on my gokart!

[chr1s88blue]

haha wat a queer

[Vtecstyleturbo]

I like how that guy lets go and it pulls up. Thats a strong electric motor damn. think if you had one of those pushing into the compressor housing of a turbo just to help it spool. Thad be pretty neat

[TheSqeeek]

If you were to spool a turbo and let go it'd blast itself through the nearest wall. This really isn't much air, compared to how much your car is sucking in. Probably wouldn't be much benefit.

[zanick]

Hey, its only 1psi net difference in your intake, but thats 3% and for the price, its not a bad mod.

[TheSqeeek]

Actually, atmospheric pressure is about 14.7 psi, so that's more than 3%, btw. Plus, I doubt this thing rly pressurizes the intake. My dad's old ford van has a pancake turbo on it that pressurizes intake by 1psi, and that blows waaaaaay harder than this, plus the turbine shape keeps air from being forced back down the thing. Maybe if you had 3 of them... except then the battery drain would be too high, not to mention the turbulence from each blade interfering with the next one, making it moot...

[JRYANG9000]

LMFAO

[freestylestt]

well bobbydee just to let u know i drive a 1990 eagle talon tsi awd i only have a few small mods probably pushing around 235hp(not allot but good enough for me) i know allot about turbo vehicles. i also know how sexy a real turbo is while your blowing past your opponent. and if you knew much about turbos u would know that 1 or 2 psi is a noticeable difference. like i said if hood scoops work and turbos work(forced air) why cant something electric work even if its only pushing 2psi,

[fastestrugbyman]

mm u know , ive all ready made an electric turbo it spins at 40.000 rpm and may be can push over 05. bar couse it is big like a t80

i think that an electric engine can spin fast enough to make a power diff. u only have to know how to work with it

[levianthan28]

the face he pulls like he is holding a 1 in a million item peice of shity plastic doesnt mean u need to look all bad u total moron the face he pulls when he lets go of it omg :s scarey shit dude he actualy thinks its something worth wathing my god..........

[Terminchiator]

maybe on a battery equipped moped...

[thecalemiller]

yeah, gonna have to say, there's a pretty big difference between an exhaust, or belt driven turbine and a little plastic fan that runs of a 12v battery :P

[theman121093]

true but there is a big difference in price also so money to power wise i think their pretty equal

[redmight93]

LOL WTF

[freestylestt]

plus who really cares what it sounds like if it can POSSIBLY give u more hp. also if u are into performance u are likely to have a performance exhaust, you shouldn't be able to hear it anyways. heck even regular turbo's get annoying now, making cars sound like diesel tucks who would want that? unless u are going to pull a trailer.i am not saying these electric turbos work,but in theory they should but i will give it a try at this altitude and see how it goes.

[bobbydee30g]

Thats the biggest crock of shit I've heard or read all day. To real car enthusiast and tuners there's no sound sexier than a turbo spooling up and a blow off valve dumping air.

[kregzdeM3]

@bobbydee30g V12, at 9000 RPM, with straight pipes? That's the sexiest sound!

[bobbydee30g]

@kregzdeM3 shit right now I'll settle for a supercharged v8 with cherry bombz but.....times are tough.

[Snither]

@bobbydee30g well at least if u dont have the money and time for a real turbo let them feel they have a thingy that at least looks like a turbo. :)

[ERIC933G]

@bobbydee30g they wont get that sound with that hair drier

[GreenMagic89]

@bobbydee30g oh yes there is sonny boy a 454 Big Block shaking and rumbling like an earthquake

[freestylestt]

i assume that if u attach this unit to a fuel injected vehicle it would be less beneficial due too the mass air flow censer accounting for the air.maybe if it were attached to the intake behind the censer it will work better. a small 4 cyl would probably benefit the most. due to the low psi, or even a moped.if i use this product i am going to run another hose off the air cleaner so it gets its regular air plus the turbo so there is no change of air. and so the turbo wont lag the air going in

[freestylestt]

plus even if it pushes 1-5lb its not going to cause your engine to run too lean,even if its constantly pushing 5 psi at an idle. and it will especially not hurt it at 8,000ft. my friend has an eagle talon that i am buying, he was running 25psi at this altitude. on the stock fuel pump(witch everyone knows it wont support)and 25psi was when it would run the best with out frying the engine.any more air u could get into the intake the more efficient it could be.

[freestylestt]

i don't see why this product wouldn't work. maybe not enough psi to notice. but i live at 8,000 ft above sea level and the air is thin here and there is a huge hp drop because of it, turbos work by forcing air and so do super chargers and ram air. so why cant a fan be used to force air into the intake? i think an electric turbo might be beneficial at this altitude and is cheep enough to try.

[2000v6racer]

i have a hard time believing these things work...i spent 10$ on my ram air, and the faster i go...the higher the wind speend being forced into the intake

[tyler2044]

with your ram air intake alone your only gonna see .30 psi and thats if your going well over 80 mph.

[2000v6racer]

that may be true..just hard to believe a little electric fan can give you a noticeable power diff.

[hatewhore]

O.k. we know the electric supercrappers dont work, but what about maybe a 5 hp go-kart or scooter. Would it push enough to pimp your mopad? lol, not that I have either just started thinking of smaller motors.

[lejink]

they can work, all a turbo or supercharger does is compress air. electric air compressors work, and create far higher pressures then needed for engine preformance. if it can hold 8-10psi thats going to equal a large gain in power! with no use of the engine or without limiting the exhaust flow. the only issue i could think of is getting enough amps to power the motor. may need a different alternator, 2 avoid overheating. why are u so skeptical?

[saweet999]

the thing with superchargers or turbo is that the boost increases with increasing revs but if this is just constant air flow then that will not work

[lejink]

there would be a way to mimic the way a turbo works with rpms, if your electric compressor could create enough airflow to match the turbo at high rpm you could have 3 power settings and a airflor regulator to to match your power curve. instead of directly connecting it to your intake on one setting. more complicated then this setup but i imagine it would be cheaper still then a turbo kit with no special parts needing to be made except for the air housing and mounting peaces

[saweet999]

that is true it could be done electronically, but im not sure why electric turbos arent that popular seems alot easier, cheaper and cleaner to use. there is no oil to mess with, no heat issues...etc

[MountainMonsters]

A properly built engine pair with the right TURBO can increase your engines power 50% or more in some cases. A good turbo can spool up to 180,000rpm's and this vacuum is good for 35k max?

Interesting concept but I'll stick with the good ol exhaust propelled turbine =) pluss mine sounds sexy with a HKS SS BOV.

[Davaith]

nice onbaord leaf blower, will come in handy one day when leafs attack!!

[saxplaya07]

they need to stop with this electric supercharger/turbo stuff....PATHETIC!

[CharadeYouAre]

i have a real turbo and it makes this think look like a joke, wait it is!

[whitephatt]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA

Oh maan.. That is soo not en electric turbo.. Somebody needs to do the math there..

Also, Turbo's provide pressure. That.. Can blow duralogs around.. Poor engine.. One of these days, a fin is going to give way due to the stresses of heating and cooling, and get sucked right into your engine.

[damstachizz]

WTF...

how hard is that to do?

i can strap an RC motor to a turbo fan too idiot.

[corndog251]

It took Thomas Knight 26 years to develop an electric forced induction system that actually works right. I highly doubt this little vacuum motor can do anything but restrict your intake.

[calemiller79]

wow so... it can fly and blow shit away... I think if i ever did buy one of these it would be to smash it...lol no hard feelings...

[eclipsetuner99]

i dont think i could face the fact that my car sounds like a vaccum cleaner

[clontzteg]

..... yikes even if you did put that vaccum on your car it would make the a/f be lean as hell

[atomgonuclear]

no it wouldnt change the a/f ratio idiot cause its still metered air, however these things are peice of shit anyway its about as good as hookin up a vaccume cleaner

[zanick]

its a good mix of flow and pressure, albeit only 1psi of net change in the intake. It does give 6% gains of HP. cfm is over 900, and when demand is less than 500, the net result is pressure.

It does work and works for the right reasons.

There is also a 2psi DC brusless motor version that spins at 35k rpm. this is a net 2psi at flow rates of over 400cfm.

dirt and rocks cant get sucked in , as there is a filter on the eRAM. Or, it attaches to a stock air box with a filter.

[amfan12]

Just uses super high velocity air, not a lot of flow. Move along, nothign to see

[rassi66]

No way this will work.

No electric fan that small can boost any car engine.

Sorry, no easy power here. (or nowhere to be exact)

[MerlinGTO]

You sir are totally incorrect. These units have been tested and dyno'd for years now and are listed in several race magazines along with track times completed by the actual eRAM Racing Team. They produce 1 PSI or 2 PSI depending on the model. This is a 6% to 12% HP increase and is well proven. Try doing a little research before you speak.

[rovku]

Placebo effect. You do some research too, my friend.

Funny how there are no youtube videos them on a dyno... or on the road, for that sake.

It's always "work in progress" - someone holding a fan, showing how much air it can blow... ain't that strange..

[Prototypexl]

Wish I could give you two thumbs up. I see your point...

[insanemazda]

iv seen a integra on a dyno with one of these it did gain 10 hp i was surpised for the price it is better than a turbo that will eventually burn out from the boost pressure

[iNfaMousYaj]

your lame lol

[MikkoMuhis]

@rovku

There actually is. One man published a test. ..It didn't give any pressure as supposed to and neither any extra power.

[GreenMagic89]

@rovku the "fan" is still a Turbine

[rovku]

@GreenMagic89 A turbine is a rotary engine that extracts energy from a fluid flow and converts it into useful work (source: Wikipedia). This, however, is a fan.

[GreenMagic89]

@rovku any of various machines having a rotor, usually with vanes or blades, driven by the pressure, momentum, or reactive thrust of a moving fluid, as steam, water, hot gases, or air, either occurring in the form of free jets or as a fluid passing through and entirely filling a housing around the rotor. THE DICTIONARY!!!! mother fucker

[GreenMagic89]

@rovku so get your bullshit source out of here. its a fan, with a housing. ITS A TURBINE YOU little turd

[omega3677]

@GreenMagic89 A fan is not a turbine unless the fan blade itself is being powered by a source so that the work can be harnessed to drive or power something (example wind mill). A good example of a turbine is the turbocharger is powered by the exhaust gases that turns the turbine shaft connected to the compressor impeller. A fan blade powered by a electric motor is not a turbine. Just trying to make their device sound cool but its nothing but a scam.

[MerlinGTO]

And for your info, VolksWagon has been putting electric superchargers on their new cars for a few years now at the factory as OEM standard equiptment. Go look it up.

[cavalierxz24]

It's all fun and games untill u suck in some dirt or rocks and fuck your engine get a reall turbo not a vaccum cleaner.

[bvaselin]

actually the it has a filter on the intake so that wont happen just dont get all but hurt cause you spent all of you money on something that you didnt have to

[MANOLOWILLYS]

hi ,my neme is manolo.will it works in a 350 v8 corvette engine?.are you happy with this turbo?who is the company that sells this turbo?

[joshmanz28]

PROOF THEY DO NOT WORK!

check out video: Ik-POf-S08A

[zanick]

thats only proof that a 2amp, 24watt heating and AC fan cant produce pressure! wow, what a surprise. The eRAM is 800watts, and does not only reduce the vacuum in most all air boxes, but adds pressure as well. even a gauge would show the positive pressure.

[LO916]

there's two different kind.. that one is made out of plastc i have the same thing it didnt work at all.. but the one in the video is made out of metal i think. it look like it works..haha

[antonyr123]

no point pushing more air into the system unless u add more fuel best to have a good mix.

[zanick]

most all FI engines can accomodate the 5% increased density with more fuel. We have been using them and dyno'ing them for years.

[ARV]

Really works at my neon sxt .I dont know but about negative respones .One thing i can say try this shit it's a good shit like you smoke it

[jas12345678]

is that 1 of them ebay ones?

[bobfull]

this is a product called A PIECE OF SHIT

[UL05ST]

this is a product called E-RAM

[Riddco]

lol - yea and that sounds great. Look everone, I stuck a hairdryer in my intake...

[FastMoneyStacks69]

dude I did the same thing!!...it's was kind of weird but I guess it worked

[lillefurte]

Friend of mine mounted this on his kawa z 900,but it gave way too mutch pressure,the engine just stalled,he may get it working but it`ll take some more modification and careful tuning.

[nurciq]

dont't know ( i am forget ), maybe try browsing under keyword electric turbo or supercharger.

[smokeyjoh17]

who makes this brand?

[infectrus]

hell, if you can make it create manifold boost, then it should work...

[nurciq]

only make about 1 psi boost on low to under mid RPM, maybe around 1000 to 3000rpm on 1600 cc engine, i think this item only wasting money. I only show this to prove how dificult to make electric superchargers because of very huge electricity ( wattage ) they needs. ( sorry about my english )

[thearkateks]

@infectrus It's not just about the boost you create. You gotta think about the load its putting on the alternator in order to create that boost. You might generate a pound of boost but your alternator could be 10 times harder to turn.

[infectrus]

@thearkateks

In the tuning world, as long as you have enough fuel for it, 1lb of boost makes about 10hp at the crank.

An alternator at full field (putting out as much as it can put out) still does not draw much. We have messed with the affects of that on the dyno and its not noticeable. And unless your running something thats pulling 300+ DC amps, your alternator wont go full feild anyway.

[thearkateks]

@infectrus I'm not even gonna get started with you. If you think that the energy to make the boost comes out of nowhere you need a lesson in physics... and that 1lb of boost for 10hp is complete shit.

[infectrus]

@thearkateks Energy to make boost comes out of nowhere? Enlighten me on where i said that. All i was talking about is alternator draw on crank hp at full feild. And a lesson in physics? What does 1psi manifold pressure giving 10hp have to do with physics? If you were supercharged, or had some other system that is using engine power to make power that number would be a lot lower. Your average roots type supercharger takes between 25-45hp to run. A turbo has no dyno measureable mechanical loss.

[QuattroStig]

@infectrus

It's no use explaining a forced induction system to people on youtube. You can't win a battle against ignorance and stupidity. They think they're underdrive pulley's, throttle body spacers, and 100mm plug wires (that was an exaggeration) are going to give them noticeable horsepower gains. They theorize these things and assemble v-tech trash in their garage and choose to argue with people that have real experience with what works for your money and what doesn't.

[infectrus]

@thearkateks The completely stupid "electric turbo" we are talking about here would also produce a little less being its drawing power from the engine to run itself. but its pretty much industry standard, 1psi = 10hp. Its going to vary as every engine is different, as is its tune. I would like to see how your qualified to argue with me by the way. Unless you tune, race, and work on a dyno as i have been doing for nearly 10 years...i vote you walk away from this conversation. You wont win buddy.

[thearkateks]

@infectrus haha chill dude. I'm not gonna read all that.

[infectrus]

@thearkateks You were talking like some kid in his first semester of mechanical engineering, fluid dynamics and calc classes take a lot of reading, thought you would be up to it. ;)

[YiXingLong]

@infectrus you were debating with god o_o

[infectrus]

@YiXingLong How do you figure?

[YiXingLong]

@infectrus look at the channel and see lol

[infectrus]

@YiXingLong Dont see god. lol I see someone who makes music trying to argue with a tuner. Albeit good music though. Think he could give joel zimmerman AKA: Deadmau5 a run for his money. Though deadmau5 is more house/dance and he is Electroish. The album is very decent actually. Bravo. Suscribed. Ill consider buying it if i get over him being an ass.
