Has anyone tried using a Ducted fan motor as an electric supercharger for their car or truck?

Would it work?

Was just checking them out on the web and they are all pretty cheesy.

Thought someone around here might have tried it.

Have Fun!

Haven't tried the magnets yet, BUT I have routed the fuel line under my seat so when I fart it warms the fuel up!

Cool link Pud, Hadn't seen that one. 8 PSI would be impressive. A lot of them claim 1-2.5 PSI.

I thought they were usually closer to 13psi...How about 20psi!:eek: or are you still talking electric.:confused: :rolleyes:

Ya a lot of electrics claim 1-2.5 PSI. Which is a "why bother" to me.

8 PSI would be something worth bolting on... I would think.

I was just trying to see if anyone has tried anything crazy with some RC stuf they had laying around.
