Will you make power with an eBay Supercharger? In this episode Marty and Moog install a system to see if the claims on the box actually turn into real world power. But they need a new car to work on and only have $100 to spend…

So in theory, I could modify a leaf blower, cut off bits of it, rig it up to an intake and then use it to increase power. Hmmmmm…. FERB, I KNOW WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO TODAY!
9 years later still a great video.
You’re losing power by having a T joint instead of a Y joint with the leaf blowers. Your power is blowing against eachother. If the air was blowing down it would be even more.
What if you instal an air compressor and inject a shot of compressed cold air
Hahahaaa they are so young!! ☺️
Maybe you should have used a tesla turbine for a super charger.
T connector should be a Y
haha go ben
It doesn’t work very well on a car braid it 1970 car they were totally different on fuel injection
You are not supossed to adjust the MAP so more gasoline goes in?
To pressure air into a compressor chamber needs a strong engine which is why a big turbo is pointless on a non suitable size donkey
Your cars naturally aspirated air that's forced down an intake at high speeds dosent get you three times the power y wud a 12v silly fan do any power increase.blows my leaf when ppl spends money on stupidity when theyve no idea what they're doing.ppl on Ebay should get done for false advertising and theft against a moron that buys it underdeception
Who's incharged of this whole charade.
Just shows it's only plastic mechanics on here. They didnt even get a proper supercharger sticker. Haha assholes how do they expect power from the thing without a sticker. Go to school
?????
This is the video that brought me to mcm and I’ve been here ever since
Maybe a boost leak
might also have been good to clean air filter and probably check you arent losing the pressure in the airfilter anyway – its not really a high pressure friendly system
Most likely the supercharger is just not putting enough air in to boost the pressure and the control chip doesnt know what to do even if it did
its not a turbo, turbos are driven by the exhaust, this is a supercharger, most were done via the crankshaft. No lag
Aahhh the reaction when you realize you’ve been scammmed……so authentic ?
