Looks interesting, I wish they got rid of the stupid music on the demonstration part so you could hear it. Also in full scale supercharger applications that I've seen, they beef up the engine to handle the superchargers added speed and strain on the engine. In the video when he says "you don't need to modify your engine to run this" I was thinking "if you want your engine to last you should" but overall I would be interested to see it run.

I'm skepticle since all the stuff I hear about their nitro one and I've had one of those and it made the motor impossible to tune but thats just me. It does look cool though

No need to modify the motor since it doesn't add horsepower. They need a new chrome plater too.

They really don't have the best rep when it comes to their products. I would need to see some dyno results before I'd try that one.

Yeah I would like to see someone else test it before i am sold. It would be crazy if you hook it up with he 2 speed. Insane!

why go tru all the effort with the onboard camera and the other camera and play music. could it work as claimed? well- if the impeller spun fast enough. no way to guess when you cannot hear the engine.

I know I wanted to hear it too but geez for the price you could almost get a really nice mod motor

Even if it did work, a good ported motor will give more hp for the money.

thing is-- there all ready is a super charger for 2 strokes. its called a expansion chamber. what would really get my attention would be a fuel injection system. heck,, bob hanna had a fuel injected yz 125 factory bike in the 1970s. jezzzz.

True but the sound of a blown motor is pretty nice I really wanted to hear to see if it sounded like a blower cause the nitro ones didn't sound like anything
