$3,000? I'll take nitrous if I only want short bursts.
$3,000 better spent on a custom turbo setup.

lame, they destroyed they're arguement in their own ad. 3k electric turbo, or 1k for nice nitrous setup Hmm.... or 3k for a nice turbo kit that works ALL the time. If the thing only costed 1k, then MAYBE

15 seconds is a pretty long time if you think about it, but as for power w.r.t. money it's not worth it, out of curiousity how heavy are these extra batteries?

i'd take a junkyard turbo over that :) Cheaper, and you can use it as long as you want.

Okay, p=vi right?

So if my math doesn't fail me this thing pulls 125 amps!!!! Yeesh

This type of thing is all over ebay. What good is a super charger that costs 3 grand and can only be used 15 seconds?

For 3 grand it better come with an upgraded alternator, ignition system, fuel system, and stereo system

It did say up to 20psi... thats how much HP?

I see no nos kit that can do what 20psi can.

I would take a look at it more... No boost lag. No Extra heat... Great for a 1/4 mile whore.
