    Many people don't realize a stock ECU just wont allow power gains even if it were producing positive pressure. They're designed to make corrections to keep the engine closest as possible to the baseline. That's why i laugh when people throw pod filters on a stock NA engine. Does nothing other than allow larger dust particles to enter the combustion chamber.

    I'd guess that the amount of extra air being added is being cancelled out by the air being hotter, thus being less dense.
    Might I suggest you try a fridge/freezer motor.. You'd need to run it and store it in an air tank then run that into a valve on the intake that you can turn on and off inside the car, because the output of those fridge motors is low, but they're high density.
    I only know this as I wanted a silent air compressor, so I made one with a fridge motor lol

  • @JakeRennie-kf4fv

    Should add another throttle cable to the blower so it can rev with the motor. Instead of just killing it full power off the bat.

    @patt20b Месяц назад +4

    People keep getting it wrong! There is a big difference between a turbocharger and a supercharger! A supercharger is a belt driven or gear driven air charger to force air into your engine. Now a turbocharger is an exhaust propelled air charger that forces air into your engine! Why a turbocharger is called a turbocharger is because it is a turbine that is powered by spent exhaust gases, and that turbine is attached to the comp wheel to force the air into your engine. So the more exhaust gas that gets sent out of the engine into the turbine the faster the turbine will spin the more air you can force into your engine! Simple! Now a supercharger is an air compressor that is powered by your engine by a belt or gears. So it uses the power of your engine to drive the compressor to force the air into your engine! So you are restricted to engine rpm’s so to make the compressor spin faster you have to overdrive the compressor by gear ratios to spin the compressor faster to create more pressure in turn more power! So two completely different types of compressors! The more efficient is the turbocharger because it uses spent exhaust gases and no hp to run! Where the supercharger cost hp to run. Because the engine has to power the compressor by belts or gears! But at the end of the day they both do the same job. Just one is more efficient than the other!

    • @rossbrumby1957
      @rossbrumby1957 Месяц назад

      Turbochargers restrict flow of exhaust to pump gases so still tax engine power. Only way not to tax engine power is to run the supercharger or turbocharger off a seperate power supply such as another motor. Leaf blowers arent efficient enough to make even 1 or 2 psi so forget a normal leaf blower.

    The sad part is that I remember about 30 years ago there was a company sell electric "turbos" as a performance part they were basically an electric leaf blower that ran off your alternator. It was just a joke. But I knew people that bought them and were absolutely positive that they worked even though they could not back it up with numbers.
