I have a 2006 mazda3. I've had it for roughly 6 months now. I just realized the other day what an electric suoercharger was. It seems like its pretty much universal as far as application. I was wandering if it was ok to put one in my car. I want to eventually get a full turbo kit, but this looks like a temproray cheap way for a bit of boot. Any sugestions?

 

p.s. sorry 'boutthe typos, its my crappy wireles keyboard, i think the batteries need replacing, it doesnt send every key i press sometimes. :-P

 

Those things are really dangerous to your car. Imagine a piece of plastic from one of the blades getting sucked into your intake.

 

Plus they don't flow enough to make any real boost anyway.

EDIT: Check out a couple of those threads at the bottom of this column.

 

Dude .. don't do it. I say you start out with a nice Intake/Header/Exhaust combo if you're looking for performance gains. It's not much, but it will probably be as much as that e-charger would provide .. except a lot safer for your engine.

 

snake oil...they do NOT work

 

Thanx for the advice guys, yea, i guess i'll just wait for me to get some denero to get the good stuff.

 

i heard they drain your battery and kill your alternator
