I searched for the video on SpeedTV and general Google search and couldn’t find it… but they are talking about it in this Vette forum (post #26, then #28)

plus he had big heavy bling rims... he had no business being on a drag strip - especially on national TV!!!

I was pissed when I saw his run because ppl that dont know the car will think its a slug (well it is compared to most cars on that show, but not as bad as his pass ~

I bet the electric fan actually impeded the flow through the intake causing hp loss.

ok lets assume it is moving more air into the engine.

Wouldn't it lean out really bad? how much can the stock ecu compensate?

Seriously anything to get more air into the engine will help, but you gotta add more fuel too!

No, because it doesn't *create* air. It just pulls more air in, thus the additional air is accounted for.

...so is this legit??

im really skeptical. in fact, i dont believe it until i see actual dyno sheets.

Are turbonators legit? Answer that question and you get a cookie [and solve the mystery of this thread!]

I never said it was legit All I've ever said was that if you want to *maybe* increase your hp, you can shove a leaf blower into your intake!

what???? That makes no sense...
I don't think anyone ever claimed it defied physics

Of course it doesn't "create" air, but it might help move more air in the engine, more air = more power IF more fuel is also added. Stock ECU's only can adjust over a limited range, that's why FI guys have to do some sort of fuel management

From the looks of it, it might restrict airflow. I can't understand how anyone would fall for these products.
