There's no way being powered by a car battery and with it's size it could spin fast enough to create a noticible difference. Maybe in the beginning until like 1500rpm, anything after that it's probably just slowing down the air that's coming through.

The only way an electric supercharger would ever work is with a high power capacitor hooked up to a real compressor unit with a huge electric motor... and even then it would only provide bursts of energy for a very short amount of time.... then you have to figure out how to somehow build in a filtered bypass so that it dosn't end up restricting normal airflow when it is not operating. Never mind all the modifications you need to your electrical system to make it even mildy sustainable it would probably end up costing more than a real Turbo anyway.

Thats work. We have tryed for funny and we gain 1s in a 0-400m

But for example, faor a k20a that does not work, wy the air flow of NA are higher of the air flow on the hair fan.

I've worked through this extensively. I think with a high-end ($200-$300) brushless motor or two, and a fancy controller or two (also $200-$300 each), it could be done. Snag on the fan though -- you'd need to custom fab and balance light weight epoxied carbon fiber blades. Plus, you'd need a decent battery and alternator.

That's the rub though. You're converting mechanical power into electrical, and then back into mechanical. It's a losing proposition, really. So I never tried.

The one dude that built a real electric turbo, 3 motors, one real turbo, and 3 dedicated vehicle batteries. One boost per charge! But he used the wrong kind of batteries for that application.
