C230 coupe, nothing special :)
I have a electric supercharger for the w203 "universal" I bought my first month of owning the car. I never installed it. I seems like Its a intake + , Sucks in allot of air.

Anyway if you want it Ill sell it $20 shipped.

i checked the website above and they have a GUARANTEE for the Hp increase, if it doesn raise hp they refund your money, they also have dyno tests for e36 m3 and various 911 porsches, so i know its too good to be true but these guys are showing the facts, will it actually work?

you have that electric supercharger? can you try it out on your car and tell me if you expereince any noticable gains, if you do they i will definitly buy it from you!

Remember, the electric power has to come from somewhere as no power is free. The extra load on the engine might not be less than the gain. I did a quick search and most of ESC on ebay were 5 amps, or 50-70W.

I think if these were legitimate performance products, people would be using them. I just did a quick google search and it seems like there are legitimate electric superchragers out there but they are much more elaborate and have a high-output alternator and 4+ leadacid batteries.

Last time I checked, it was spelled Arizona and Indians never lived on "plantations", they live on reservations. I don't even know where to begin with the rest of your post...

DTM means "Douche-TouringVagon-Meister-Shaft"

basically they doo 100 lap endurance race around the nurboorg-ring in ba-yern, the winner is the last one to run out of petrol.

Uh, try again? For about the last decade it's been the "Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters" because they changed the layout of the competition. It's a touring car racing. It's on many tracks in Germany, Spain, UK, France, and Italy.

I don't think I've heard of anyone routinely running out of petrol each race as the goal is to FINISH the race, not drive the longest distance

You are absolutely right. I'm not an ASE mech.

I do however know someone who has an electric supercharger on his car. He has dyno'd and proven the install.

However, to run it, he uses four additional batteries on his car, with extensive modifications. So, before you inject more zingers, ask yourself, "Do I know who I'm talking to?"

As a spammer, your doing a terrible job at introducing yourself. But, then you likely don't care.

i see your a director of managment, i understand its tuff to coordinate a group of mexicans to clean the toilets of a building, but you with a productions/operations management major are obviously very capable in doing that job. dont mind me asking but how much do you pay them? minimum wage? has your firm considered going public yet?

"Follow along as I restore an Italian Classic"

Nope, nobody is following along on that. its just you and that urine-colored car. ciao

Well, after a little research:

So I looked up the address on Google Maps:

I COULD be wrong, but it looks like this stuff is being sold out of someone's house. At least it's on the beach.
