YJ Electric Supercharger?

skotsour · 10-22-2003, 08:18 AM

I was looking on ebay and saw someone selling an electric supercharger for all Jeep models...Does anyone know anything about this or maybe have one? I have a 4banger and would love some extra horsepower!

Motor Block Oil Bypass Kit-
Modern synthetic oil is very expensive - so why run the risk of getting it dirty by running it through your motor block? KaleCo bypass kit comes with everything you need to run the oil around your motor block where it will do more good. Oil runs cooler, and as a result, there may be horsepower gains!

i just ordered one of these, wouldn't want my purdy little engine to get dirty, would i

Is that the e-ram thing? They say it suposedly guarentees at least 4% more power! So lets take the 120hp I4 and add roughly 5hp. You won't even notice a damn thing with only 5hp. Not really worth it!

I was thinking about the "Cross drilled brake lines"...mad out of latex...Think I should get blue to match the jeep or red to compliment it?

in regards to the electric super charger, if its the same one im thinking of, its supposedly capable of like 1 or 2 psi worth of boost, and is meant to be wired so that it is only triggered at wide open throttle...

not the WORST idea in the world, except for the fact that your fuel injection wont compensate for that added air, also as stated above, the horsepower boost would be minimal.

for the price, it goes on my list with throttle body spacers and octane booster

If im right that ebay electric supercharger is kind of a joke. Try a blow-dryer, it'll do the same thing for you.

I like the piston return springs for a rotary engine...

Hey, I looked all over that site and couldn't find any info on ordering. I was trying to find an aluminum muffler bearing. Mine keeps rusting.
