Anyone have any input on the MimoUSA supercharger found on ebay, Bolts on where stock air filter sits , powered by an electric motor. claims 15 to 25 hp boost.. cost 350$. its no alpine but could be a lower cost minmal benifit upgrade. any thoughts?

Thats a fan, not a supercharger.

It won't move enough air to provide any measurable boost, and at WOT its actually a restriction to flow.

But if you want to try it, I've got on I took off a customer's VX that I'll let you have for $75.

thats pretty much what I figured, I've got my eye on an alpine but don't want to install it myself (slightly out of my skills experience not to mention I don't know what specialty tools might be required) anyone know of a good place for this type of job in the indanapolis,IN area?
