Well, to optimize it, maybe, or yes. But how much difference will there be?? We will see. Since these cars are MAF based, higher airflow automatically changes the "look-ups" in the factory tables, and increases fueling and decreases timing.

The MAP high CEL could be taken care of without a tune with an inline MAP clamp of sorts.

I'm a tuner, so obviously I believe in tuning, but I think it's important to stress that Fenton's car is not tuned at all, and he's beating it, driving it, enjoying it a lot lol.

So, about 3k total for this kit and tune... and you only make at most 30hp? Just spend another 1k on it and buy a REAL proven turbo kit. Sorry to the manufacturers, but an electric turbo? That is so ghetto....

I don't know how many times I've read your crap and mis information.. Right now his kits are online between 1400-1600..


80ft lbs through the dip and in some places 50hp with 30hp on top.. All for the price of some nice exhaust systems, that give you a louder car and 4hp..

Man I wish this forum had a bitch slap smiley

I know this has already been answered... but for anyone else reading through this thread and thinking "Oooh... electric turbos work??" and then running to eBay to find one... it's worth mentioning here that so far as I'm aware, this is the ONLY kit out there that isn't a complete scam.

That's actually how I ended up in this game in the first place. I've been warning people off e-blower scams for nearly as long as I've been interested in modding cars. That's how Rob got in touch with me to try to convince me that he had something different.

Just puttin' this out there as fair warning. We can all hope that more and more working stuff hits the market in the coming years, but at the moment they simply don't exist. Don't fall for a scam!
