Super Cheap Supercharger / Real or ******?

I ran into this performance upgrade called GTE Supercharger. They said it makes at least 5 PSI and it hooks up to the front of cold air intake tubing. It was only 200 dollars and said it might add 20-60 hp. I'm not sure that I believe that it works, but I wanted to get your expert opinion.

Here is the kit:

Air + Fuel = Power
with this, you add in more air but dont add in more fuel which equal to no power gain, but you have wasted $220 and probably your engine.

Stay away.

Does look very similar to a rest room exhaust fan motor and blades.
20-60HP increase!I'd buy one just for the sound it makes!

Not that this will help, but I found it rather funny.

900W motor = 1.2HP

900W on a 12V circuit is 75Amps (let's move on and pretend the alternator is large enough)

75A DC through a 14ga wire simply amazing. (In reality, you would need a 1/2" diameter cable to run this current through it safely)

Ohm's law, you just can't mess with it!
