Yeah so I have been seeing these things on Ebay, which probably isnt a good sign in the first place, but they claim that it is a bolt on to your existing air intake (Fuel injection performance kit I guess) and say that you can gain about 35 to 50 HP....now why does this sound too good to be true.....does it mess the engine up? I mean they cost about 80 $.....for 80 $ getting 35 to 50 more HP thats worth it, but I dunno......Does anyone have any experience with these ????/ thanks.

Sounds like simply forcing air into the intake via an electric blower. I doubt an electric blower is going to be able to create stable pressure, especially for an $80 kit. You might as well get a squirrel cage fan from a furnace, mount it on top of your hood, and duct it into your intake for all that it'd be worth.

sticking it into your air tube but look at the
amperage draw what ever you woukd have gained is
ate up by the power it draws
A bigger throttle body and a cold air system will
give you more gain than this electric s/c
my opinion a wast of good money there are so many
proven mods you can do just start 1 at a time as
you can afford them once they are all in place
they compliment each other and make for a great
running V6
