I found this funny

I found this to be rather funny for someone to try to sell on ebay. Tell me, is it not just a squirel cage blower?

those are old news. they were all over ebay 4 or 6 months ago. people (ricers) were paying hundreds of dollars for them. most of the ones sold were originaly designed for use on ships, and the most expensive of which was about $60 at nautical supply warehouses. people were getting ripped off big time. some sellers even had graphics of dyno runs showing big HP gains.

There actually was a company that released a similar product that was actully designed for automotive use called the twin turbo zex or something like that. A major automotive magazine (don't rember which one) tested it and found no improvement in HP or torque.
