I wouldn't mind getting one of these. Thoughts??

Its not April fools day.

This cannot and will not work.
If anything you will lose power. Its a fan in your intake blocking your flow, so it has to be worse.
Also its a fan not a compressor so it cant compress the air.
I will let every one else carry on about these products now.

Dude, just... no. These are a giant scam. Just as bad as those things you plug into the cig lighter that apparently gives better fuel economy. No boost in power comes cheaply. You be better off giving the engine a service to get more power/response. Please, please, please do not buy one!

These are no good.

No offense to Sam but this thread should be deleted before anyone else sees these and starts asking more questions.

The simple answer is 'No'.
