I repeat again, it was not the so-called SC in this post. This is just some fan/blower and most likely would do nothing but at worst would come apart and go downstream.

Why would anyone think of ruining the efforts of the best german engineers by putting anything spawned from/for ebay on their car.
Hi,

I understand what you mean, and I didn't say anything negative about the one you're describing. The XKR produces about 12PSI on maximum boost unlike the 1-2PSI you describe. But, the science stays the same.

So, 1-2PSI is possible without installing an Electrical Power Station under the hood to power it, but probably just. This is probably why the available boost is so small, anything more and you run into trouble.

Happy Motoring!...Jim'99
