The idea that more fans (in series ) = more flow isnt exactly a right one.

Yeah - I know it's not directly scaleable.
I was just thinking how weird it would look.
How about 9 of them, in 3 rows of 3 each??

Let's see now... 2000 Integra, aftermarket chip, and a "eram"...

Yep, dyno should be right around 25whp - total!

with "just AN AFTER MARKET CHIP" and an eram..... can never see these things work alone...


just remember there is teams in the highest forms of racing that have more money then any of us will ever see invested in research facilities to see if things like this would be viable. Thats why you see so many race cars/engines by Mclaren, Cosworth, Honda..... that have similar devices.... right?

You can't just *create* power. Say you want a 10hp increase, well, you're going to need to generate 10hp worth of energy. This is electric so it's going to have to come from the alternator or battery. Since we're only dealing with approx 12v we look at amps. You'd need waaaay more amps than our alternators can handle. Try something proven like nitrous. It's only a few hundred more dollars.

the thing draws 50 amps and pumps 3lbs at 750cfm...i think we'd need to upgrade alternators to run that bloody thing or else lots of dead batteries :P

Stupid holidays are delaying me gettig the car. Anyway i reallt appreciate the skeptism...REally! I've actually done the video thing when i was showing it off at a car show. I'm anxious to get the rotary and start tinkering with it. Cbrock, I also iport nitrous systems. your totally right in what your saying. But its in a way different league to eram. Anyway just to set records straight, I'm not here tosell anything. I's just looking for people if they tampered with them at all.

On your 89, the VDI already gives you the effect of about 1 PSI boost.
Hold your throttle at half open in 2nd gear and you will feel it at about 5400 RPM.

I think the intake will suck the eram into the throtle body...
