electric turbocharger

I was on eBay when I found a electric turbo charger.
It looks like there is 2 styles, a advanced pod filter or a turbo straped on to a pod.
Does any one know much about them?
What would the psi be or whatever its called for it.
They price from $60-$350 I found.
Is it worth it? I guess if you're looking for a cheap turbo.

There's a few $2000 ones which are efficient enough to provide a boost, but they are like a jumbojet in your engine bay. Cheaper to do it the tried and true way.
