Legit Electric Turbo

$2500 bucks for super easy instal and 37 Hp gain on a stock Cobalt.


Twin Electric Turbos doubled the stock torque and 90+ Hp



Not the cheapest way to make power but it has got potential.

Re: Legit Electric Turbo

Before I saw this video I actually thought that all electric superchargers are complete BS, but I guess there is at least one legit electric supercharger! If only it was a reasonable price...

Most are. It can definitely be done but takes a good quality part. I have also seen a video where someone took five gas powered leaf blowers and hooked them up to the intake. Actually made like ~8 psi.

Re: Legit Electric Turbo

They had the leaf blowers in the trunk. Connected them all together than ran a pipe up to the intake.
