Looks like a blower that you get from a car attached to a intake. would not advise getting this. it has been proben that it robs power than gives it. the fan inside doesnt spin fast enough to even force air into the car.

it's a stupid ripoff - pretty much a small fan in a casing with a cone filter.

They're wired to a switch and you flip the switch to "Add boost" - except it doesn't spin faster at higher rpms, so it does absolutely no good.

Don't even waste your money.

I ran into a guy last week that had that on his civic and he told me that it was a waist of money, it does nothing but take power from your battery.
It starts when the car is started and only runs one speed, I think it is meant to be like a cold air turbo, but it cant creat boost.

So there you go#^*(@!
