Its an idea ive thought of myself, if what they says true then theoretically it would work. However i dont think itd be as much an increase as a supercharger. There must a be a reason manufacturers havnt thought of this idea already, there must be some impractability to it. Plus their website seems cheap. So unless there was some kind off shop to visit where you can poke and prod the damn thing then i wouldnt go for it. But like i said if its legit then hell yeh go for it. The way to tell on the net is to look for that padlock thing on your browser when you go to buy as that means their registered with a thingy that makes it official. I forget the technical terminology!

Read the three other threads Ive seen either on here or on ClubPolo. Just dont do it mate.
Think about it, electirc motor driven plastic blades spinning at 40'000 rpm compared to belt driven metal blades at 150'000rpm. It will probably restrict the air flow into your engine more than just a normal filter.
Those things will NEVER EVER produce any kind of significant +ve pressure
