Intake Blower?????????

Hey everyone, I was searching on ebay today and I ran across something called an intake blower. Suposedly, it is like a supercharger, except it is electric and it is suposed to give you big increase in HP. In the pics, is shows it attached to an Ingen SRI, which is what I have on my civic. Does anyone know if this really works?

5 attached? I mean the thing looks like it would add maybe 1 maybe 2hp at most. For close to $100 I don't think it is worth the money!

those things are crap, they, instead of adding HP actually ruin the engine.
