I have seen that posted as well. I am still on the fence on it. In theory, it should work, but I am not willing to be the first to try it... I think I will hold out till I hear of someone trying it...

NO WAY THAT IT WORKS, NO PRESSURE IS BUILT UP OR IF ANY MAYBE 1/2 LB, ALL THE BLOWER IS A BILGE BLOWER FROM A BOAT. CAN'T RUN FOR OVER A FEW MINUTES AT A TIME
SAVE YOUR $ FOR A GOOD POWER ADDER

I think any type of forced induction is benificial, but I am not sure the unit on E-bay looks like it is worth the $$$ asked.

Streefire at one time had a video where someone set up a ricer ragamuffin up on a dyno with a leaf blower that increased it's horsepower by 10 or 20. Keep in mind I said it was a group of ricers, so it may have been BS...
