Subaru Supercharger
Save up to 30% on fuel costs
Gain up to 10% power and torque
Spins up to 60,000 RPM using zero friction technology

This item is NOT powered by the vehicles electrical system
Dont people realise that if it doesnt use electrical power to spin, it is using the power of the air flowing through the intake to make it spin and thus creating a restriction and using power.

There is no such thing as free energy

Yeah, a fan powered by the air flowing past it, kinda defeats the purpose doesnt it

If it has a electric motor you could get a small charge from it, maybe enough for some blue led's on the washer jets :)

Hmm, "0" friction technology?? Must be using ceramic bearings running in a bath of liquid nitrogen.
Probably work quite well as a vent fan in the shed.

Magic waste of money, its just an expencive capacitor.

Slight fluctuations in voltage wont affect injectors, ignition coils or sensors.

And the computer part of the ECU runs at a regulated 5v, so it wont even see voltage variations.

There is a dedicated site for bogus performance enhancers, cant remember it though

[quote=""ebay dodgey seller jpnona" "]Gas combustion is a continuous combustion reaction which needs a steady supply of electricity power.
But the power of your battery falls intermittently due to several electric appliances
(audio player, fan, light, and air-cooler?) shared from the same electricity power source.
As a result, it causes a non-complete combustion. Magic Booster works as an assistant charger.
It saves electricity as a spare power and release the electricity while the intermittent power falling happens.
So you can having a complete combustion and gain the most power from your engine

So easy to bamboozle stupid suckers, 6 poor bastards in February:mrgreen:.

The quote looks contradictory to me, is it suggesting the spark is a steady dc current...wtf, who cares.

there used to be another brand, lol how they keep trying to peddle the same crap.

I'v put my 60mhz cro on the batt terminals of my ea83t, there is buggerall noise, all within 0.5volt whilst revving. I'll have to see how the outback is when i can be bothered. One thing, the main cables are of a smaller gauge in the outback than what the L series had.


How about this one,http://cgi.ebay.com.au/EFI-Air-Fuel-mix ... dZViewItem

None of these devices are as good as Brockies polariser........

LOL @ Brockies Polarizer :)

at least this is not misleading:

Save up to 30% on fuel costs
Gain up to 10% power and torque

0% fits both claims :)

Spins up to 60,000 RPM using zero friction technology

Maybe they are using a superconductor bearing? :)
