I'm pretty sure i've seen them advertised in either 'Hot 4's' or 'Fast Fours'. It may have been in the American Auto parts catalogue section. Give AutoBarn a buzz, or someone like that - they should be able to at least point you in the right direction if they dont carry them.
I haven't seen one of these used on a car, in theory they sound o.k but they may be just another 'HiClone' substitute. Try to see if they come with a "If there's no increase in power, you get your money back" guarentee.
Cheers,

a little pc fan is hardly gonna push enough air through to make a difference

think about it, sitting there idling, plenty of air pressure in ya intake against a premmy much closed butterfly

open it up at 80kph and suddenly theres more air flow going through ya intake from what the engine is sucking that from what the little piece of shit imported $2 asian shit PC fan drawing .5amps is supplying

its a load of crap

rice crap

and all its gonna do is block up the intake that you should be trying to make flow more freely

If it is what i am thinking it is it is a little motor that attaches to the shaft of the turbo which keeps it spinning so it does not have spool up that much. These are just like anti lag, they just help with low down power.
