Comptech is rated at 940 CFM (cubic feet per minute).

I'd love to know the spec on a PC fan.

EDIT ..

Not that I'm saying the product is any good - I agree, it's bol****.

Their blurb says it moves 800 CFM!

I have seen some calculations and a fan would need 45 Kw to develop enough pressure and flow needed, the battery and cabeling alone would outway any power gains

snake oil anybody

145AMPs looks (using 2) a hell of a drain of the alternator? wouldn't that sap power too?

I find that by rocking backwards & forwards in the seat, the car goes faster.

These keep coming up, so I guess there really IS one born every minute.

Send me $100 and I'll show you how to make an S2000 perform 60% faster.
