e ram tested
I got my car back from ammco with my new tranny.I ran a few passes at the track but I didn't manage a single 14 second pass I hit about 15.0-15.3 at around 94 mph.Which is due to my tires are very slick.I met a kid with a civic that had that e ram supercharger,he swore this thing was awesome,well he did run 15.7 at 88mph with the eram on and16.2 at 85mph with it off,well I paid him 40 bucks to test it out.We had it on the svx in about 20 minutes.My times were still 15.1-3 but at about 99mph,I must say that this thing really pulls hard the faster you go.I like this gadget but truly won't pay 300 dollars for it,maybe two,also I notice that my voltmeter would lose nearly half a volt when the eram is on.Any thoughts

Well the eRAM is a little high powered fan that forces extra air into the engine at WOT.I've known about this product for years but I HAD MY DOUBTS.But I must say it does work judging by the mph I gained,I don't have a scanner to post timeslips,its a waste of money to me.I am not telling no one to buy one,but this little gadget actually works fairly well.I'm still not purchasing one because 300 dollars is too steep for say 10-12 hp.I guess if your car is already modded for extra airflow it will work fairly well and vice versa.Anyway I wouldn't even post a low 15,thats below the standards of this fwd bullet.

For tha matter, why not do it the even easier way and mount a leaf blower?

whew
okay, cause I was getting worried there for a sec. AND if it was possible/plausable I have an compact( ~ 3 in diameter x 6 inch long) electric air pump used to fill inflatable rafts and such with a humongous air flow rate.... it put ideas in my head.

Actually a cheap leaf blower could fit in place of the intake resonator. Just be sure to have it blow through the air filter and MAF.
I can just see someone trying to go through tech inspection at the track with a leaf blower wailing away under the fender... maybe a remote pull rope snaked through the RH door jamb and a string to pull the throttle open after staging. Then again, if the blower was really good, you could just floor the gas for a second and let the engine suck-start it. Hmm... a $79 leaf blower from Home Depot is a lot cheaper than NOS. *wonder if I have anyone ready to try this...*
