Oh good.....the tornado I had in my truck was only giving me 60+ hp increase and only 20 mpg increase (in my mind). This product "sounds" better, you take trades?

That's nothing. I changed to a triple reduction fuel filter with air atomization and picked up nearly 300-hp on the top end. Total bolt-on too.

It works just like one of NASCAR's devices. As we all know NASCAR tuners do everything to make their cars faster. All of the research and development on these kinds of devices was done in the late sixties. The NASCAR device that this closely resembles in effectiveness is called a RESTRICTOR PLATE. All of these things and other devices like the turbulator are bullshit. Just like the Y electrode sparkplugs are.

Guys, the only reason that nobody has gotten the claimed performance out of these electric superchargers is because nobody has bothered to do the tune as well. You have to get the ebay performance chip, thats the only one calibrated to work with this unit. I think they sell for about $15 or so and add something like 50 hp and 10 mpg or something close to it. But again, only if you add the supercharger too.

You can get the optional 100HP upgrade, just call and order our Boost-A-Pump.
