E-chargers are a waste of money...you'll be lucky to see a 10hp gain if that....i tired one and its a complete bogus idea

Here is the power consumption chart for a very small Eaton blower (the M45 which is an OK size for a honda)

http://www.rbracing-rsr.com/turbo/Tu...s/M45power.gif

Let's say an electric motor push the same air with 1/2 the power, a 5hp motor would take us to about 1/2 the SC's flow range. What does a 5hp electric motor look like?

Dayton Electric Motors

scroll down to the bottom.

There have been some highly geared one shot electric SC's, but the amount of batteries required to handle the demand made it not worth the limited power boost you would get, not to mention the recharge time.

It is easy to flow huge CFM, just look at the 1200CFM radiator fans. Compressing that much air takes large amounts of energy that must come from the crankshaft or exhaust.

So, no, they don't work. They sell because people are dumb.

Just get one of those tornado intake inserts, it sounds like it does the same thing, LOL

Don't do the Echarger, Just save your money and put together a turbo one piece at a time. Be patient and look for parts. You can build a good turbo set up for under 1k. 14b or T25 for one benny, search craigslist/ ebay/ junkyard for a manifold, turbo, injectors, 1g BOV etc. I did mine that way and it turned out nice.

waste of money.

allybakh 04-30-2009 10:25 PM

I see your bet and raise you.

e charger, plus tornado, plus 1 bottle STP octane booster.

(not the 6 dollar bottle either, the kind Richard Petty uses in the 14 dollar a bottle formula).

DO IT.

I see your e charger,plus tornado, plus the bottle of Deluxe octane booster, and raise you: one tailpipe turbo sound recreator!

My bet is on iceracerdude!! don't forget the pilot shift knob and pedals while you are at it... that will get you the power you want! LOL;D

I've got a can of red interior paint and I am not afraid to use it.

Skaterdudz02 05-04-2009 01:19 PM

Don't forget an electric BOV, where's all that extra air gonna go with that E-charger?
