Leaf blower

[dj justice]

Could i use a leaf blower to supercharge my engine? I dont see why it wouldnt work.

Okay, before the flaming begins, I will try and see what I can add about this setup.

Do you know what type of temperature the air coming out of the blower will be, if its not somewhat cool, even if its going in faster its probably going to be a waste of time.

Are you sure that you can seal the blower in so there's no leaks, any leaks will allow unfiltered air to go into the TB.

Come to think of it, is there a filter for the blower?

Also, how do you plan on powering it, if its electrical you need an inverter and something as powerful as that will most likley cause a very large draw on the electrical system, can your car handle it?

What's the life span on the blower, is it going to randomly die one day?

Those are the questions that are on the top of my head as far as could this possibly be done.

[evol90accord]

no, the really sad thing is that some really stupid stuff that people think of actually gets put on cars *ahem*the tornado*cough*....

[dj justice]

I heard the tornado actually slows your car down.

[evol90accord]

well according to "official dyno tests" it improves performance. and according to "official tests" I passed emissions....

anyway, we're beating a dead horse with that.

the redneck turbo is still funny.

Man, sorry to flog a dead horse but after reading the Turbonator Thread I had to check this out.

All I'm worried about is how it would affect the Leafblowers Warranty!!
