anyone ever tried this???
"e-Ram"
Since 1997, e-Racing Motorsports, LLC has been producing the original and patented axial flow electric supercharger. We have installed the e-RAM and Super e-RAM electric superchargers on 4 cylinder engines through V8 engines, and have made many test runs on chassis dynos (Dynojet 248e) to verify the successful results from installation. Gains are generally an average increase of 4-6%, with the largest HP gains reaching 15HP in some portions of the RPM range. Unlike some aftermarket filters, and filters with intake tubes that claim to reduce enough intake restriction to give up to 10 HP, the e-RAM Electric Supercharger is a true "Forced-Air System" and a proven way to actually pressurize the intake for gains over and above that of any and all other engine modifications. Since ambient air-pressure is roughly 14.7 PSI (rough estimate.. varies upon weather conditions), and the e-RAM produces an additional 1 PSI, that equates to close to a 7% increase in air density. It is this increase in air density paired with the increase in fuel delivery which provides the 5% HP gains throughout the RPM rangeThe e-RAM draws over 60 Amps from a car battery in the "pre-charged state at 13.88V, resulting in a total power draw of 833 WATTS.
When activated, the e-RAM spools up to 25,300 RPM in less than 1/10th of a second, and tries to flow 800 CFM into your intake. It is the differential of what the e-RAM is trying to flow, VS. what your engine is trying to take in that ends up generating the positive pressure in your intake. For example, a 5.0 Liter motor draws close to 470 CFM when at redline and at full throttle, so even on a 5.0L V8, the e-RAM is trying to flow over double what the engine is able to take in. This is why the e-RAM provides 1 PSI of boost through the entire RPM range of all engines 5.0L and under.
As we have stated, the e-RAM works well with all fuel injected engines up to 5.0 liters. There is no need for concern relating to the additional HP and stress on your engine, as it is a mild increase of 5% (roughly 5hp per 100hp of current motor output). We even have installations on high compression engines, as well as engines with over 200,000 miles on them with no problems. No modifications are needed (other than how you decide to put the e-RAM on your intake), as the e-RAM works by providing more air to the intake only when you hit full throttle, your car's computer will notice the additional air-flow, and compensate with more fuel to keep the air-fuel ratio correct.
More air + more fuel = more power.
The e-RAM will not adversely effect your electrical system, as it is only activated when your gas pedal hits the floor (short duration operation). Driving at freeway speeds will not require you to floor the gas pedal, so the e-RAM will not be activated unless you floor it. All other times, the e-RAM is just waiting in "ready" mode for you to punch the accelerator.
We designed the e-RAM as a relatively inexpensive way to get mild 5% hp gains with a true bolt-on device that requires no modification of your engine, intake, ECU or fuel system. We also made sure it required no maintenance, and would be as simple as an intake tube to install.
The e-RAM provides 5% HP gains on top of all other modifications you have made, or will make to your engine. In short, because the e-RAM just provides additional air-pressure to your intake, whatever future modifications you make to your engine to increase HP, the e-RAM will add HP on top of that.

How many engine starts did you get before your battery died? 
Does the exhaust "fan" make you faster by creating a rocket-like forward thrust out the tailpipe? I'm lmao right now.
