Link was good, I just looked and it said item # has been removed by ebay, sorry it was funny though. What it was: An electric supercharger for a v8 jeep G/C that made 2.1 psi of boost all for $159.00

I didn't know anybody made an electric supercharger...

Before I make fun of the fools that buy them, can anybody tell me if there is actually an application for them?

Ricemobiles with big ol' wings on the back, LED wiper nozzles, and "Type R" stickers plastered on them maybe?

Nah, the ricemobiles spend the $186 on a whistle to stick up the exhaust, engine-block oil bypass kits, O-tailpipes, LED Halogen fluid, alternator spark-juice and rubber piston return springs.

Why fart around and get a supercharger, when you can get one of these easy bolt on mods! I was thinking about putting one on my rig, maybe it would sound like I have twins. Check out this ingenious mod http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...sPageName=WDVW

That Honda might be slow, but it sure is loud!

Not much different than us pulling out the silencer ring, but at least that's free.
