You know, if you hooked up a 1200cfm leaf blower it would act as a supercharger.. you might get a psi or two out of it which might be good for 20 HP or so, but the problem is powering it..... you don't have 120vac in the car, even with an inverter that's a lot of watts. It is possible though :> I was thinking of , for fun, hooking up 3-4 leaf blowers and running them all into the intake tube (of a test car of course), and testing it on a dyno while they are plugged into the wall. At 3 PSI would give a definite increase.. not sure how much psi leaf blowers can do but it's on my project list for 'fun'. Of course regular superchargers can put out a hell of a lot more psi :)

But is it hot air? Coming out of the leaf blowers that is... because if it is warmer then ambient would you not lose HP? Just a thought...

Cop didn't see it, I didn't do it!

Kinda looks like my skill saw. As you said, it really "cuts up" the vette and viper. How long is the extension cord? LOL
