has anyone thought of boosting a car through a seperate engine?
like a leaf blower blowing into the engine?
would this work or not create any pressure?
think or the power if you could rig up a leaf blower on a engine and you could boost 10 psi with losing any power from the exaust or sc belt or whatnot

someone had a link to a streetfire video where someone did this while on a dyno and it did work. I dont rememebr how much it added though. They duct taped a high speed leaf blower to a couple of different cars and agot higher HP out of them all. DOnt know if you can search it on here or streetfire.

Yeah they did a Civic and didnt they also do like an S-10 pickup or something like that.

Found it they used a gas blower and it added about 10HP to the Civic and about 12 to the Sonoma. then they added Nitrous to the mix also and got quite a bit more.

they didnt really seal it good on there either
if they would use a high power one like a back pack one and one a 4 cyl. it would give lots of power

though no one would ever drive with somthing like that bolted on to ur car unless your a *******
