Electric motors reach full torque almost instantly=no lag

plus it's prolly a 1/4 hp electric motor that could run off you 5amp 12v accessories plug in. Once the car is running the altornator takes the load, and only charges the battery.

To boost to 5psi @ 300cfm, would require about 7 horsepower. 7 horsepower running off a 12v system would require about 500 amps.

Your a dumb ****, do you have any idea how big a 7hp motor is and it wouldn't run at 500amps. Do you even know what ohms law is dummy?

Yeah prolly too much for you to understand any electrical theory

Well at least I can spell and write properly.

Give me an "electrical theory" and I'll tell you if I can understand it.

This

"plus it's prolly a 1/4 hp electric motor that could run off you 5amp 12v accessories plug in. Once the car is running the altornator takes the load, and only charges the battery."

and

"Your a dumb ****, do you have any idea how big a 7hp motor is and it wouldn't run at 500amps. Do you even know what ohms law is dummy?:"

this hardly qualifies for an "electrical theory".

With that attitude, I could see you being banned from here shortly.

Perhaps Gasrelay could explain ohm's law to us. The 7 hp motor @ 12vdc example would be fine, you may assume 100% motor efficency.

Yeah, I don't get all the instant hate from people who don't even understand the technology and equate it to the Turbonator. Seems pretty straightforward and should work in theory. Just think -- no turbo lag and no parasitic loss from a belt-driven SC.

FWIW here is a site with more info, including the PSI specs and electrical draw. You can choose to believe it or not but there are also dyno charts. Gains are pretty minimal, but so is the cost -- 300 bucks to start. I won't be buying one, but unlike some at least my mind is open a tiny crack to the idea.

Well I don't think I need theory for this one, but a
900 watt fan motor doesn't operate at 7hp with an FLA of 500amps. I don't even need to use ohms law to prove that because I've done motor calculations, electrical theory, ohms law in school, may be that could be why I can recognize 900 watt motor doesn't draw 500amps as "hang up and drive" claims it would. May be flyinb501 can do the calculation and he would have to do it at 100% effecieny because he wouldn't know how to calculate I2R losses, mechanical losses, or heat losses. May be that's why you make 60k a year and I make 150k plus.

500 amps, your stupid buddy
7hp, nice uneducated guess.
Ban me I don't give a f*** as long as I can point out
a dumbass it's worth it

I don't know where the 900W value came from, not from me, re-read my original post. Please tell us, how much air are you going to move with 900W? and would this be sufficient to even maintain a positive pressure to this size engine at 6500RPM? And how many amps would this require at 12vdc?

Now if you will excuse me, I must go re-attach the jumper cables to my perpetual motion machine.

Judging by your maturity level I would say it is much more likely that you are not above the age of 20 and still live in your parents basement rather than making 6 figures. Why are you so hostile?
