WoodsWagon Posted October 19, 2004 Share Posted October 19, 2004 You could hook the throttle of the leafblower to the cars throttle and get matching boost for RPM's. Mount the leafblower on the hood and get forced air into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mount the leafblower on the hood and get forced air into it. That sounds like a back yard experiment I would be willing to try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ausubaru92 Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 Im not sure how effective it would be, but what if you used the heater blower from the vent system. it mightn't give much boost but might over-come the restrictions in the intake and the filter, (especially at WOT) and may even give lower end boost cos of the higher pressure at lower air speeds. it was just a passing thought cos a heater blower could be picked up at the wreckers for next to nothing and dosent drain heaps from the battery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archemitis Posted November 10, 2004 Share Posted November 10, 2004 this thread needs to die! =] a blower motor would restrict flow if anything, even at idle. a fan does not creat booost. the pressure will just slide off the fins out the opposite way of the engine. if you want cheap, gas leaf blower is proven to work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a BAD BOY of a boat motor! Then kill this electric supercharger S..t, Power does not magically appear or materialize from nowhere, There are some guilible people unfortunatly.
