then you're an idiot. What do you think a turbo does?

>.> when i clicked the video i thought they put a turbo charger on a leaf blower

@Bandbauto84 It's 1.5L not 4.8L like in a Cadillac meaning that you wouldn't lose so much psi boost trying to fill that tiny space. A leaf blower would do a shitty Tercel wonders. It wouldn't be so great on a massive engine. I'll level with you there. But it's still much more effective in both cost and performance than a turbo.

[Bandbauto84]

@mdshagman That is 26 psi on a 1.5l, but if you put that same turbo on a engine 3x the size then the boost will be higher. With larger displacement the boost will be higher as well. As far as a power inverter just to rig the leaf blower to the car, its not worth the trouble to make the attempt. Plus a 60 psi leaf blower would maybe only make 30 psi boost on earlier mentioned 1.5l because you would have to overcome the vacuum the engine produces before you can make boost.

@Bandbauto84 1.) 26 psi is lower than most leaf blowers. Your average leaf blower does 60psi. 2.) If you were smart, you would put the power inverter for the leaf blower under the hood. If you're not that talented, then put the inverter inside your car, connect it to your accessory outlet, and run the leaf blower wire along the inside fender into the car. It's not hard. 3.) You're assuming they didn't do any tuning, but even with a turbo, you should be tuning so that's an irrelevant point.

@mdshagman Ok if thats the case then why dont i see any cars driving around with leafblowers on them instead of turbos or supers. Ive seen a tercel with a 1.5L and a SINGLE turbo pushing 26psi of boost. Plus I dont see you having a drop cord being drug behind your car everywhere you go either. Plus without tuning there is no way a car would have any performance gains regardless. So in other words the video is just some ricers being stupid.

@Bandbauto84 dumbass...the leaf blower puts in more psi than both a turbo or super charger. That's the whole point of the video.

@danraich The only reason NO2 does that, is because people let it go lean. That is why you must also supply more fuel when running NO2. I have ran it on a lot of engines without a problem, since I know enough to keep it from going lean. Keeping the total timing slightly advanced and bringing the advance-curve up at a lower RPM also helps, too.

[Bandbauto84]

Damn ricers, if you want boost put a turbo or super charger not a damn leaf blower.

@MichaelFleming2011 Simple Chemistry!! :) Smart man!

gay ass song though

@OrioThyGrim Nos give you more power but it also burns holes through the top of your pistons.
