Obviously that isn't a 944 dyno chart, but that chart shows a gain in HP and torque, especially through the mid range. The problem is that you have no idea what the heck that dyno chart is from (no proof of modification), haha. This junk idea has been around for some time. Don't worry about the fueling, lol.

That blower is no larger than the auxiliary heater blower as found on most 914's and 911's. I would bet that it may actually restrict airflow at WOT.

I believe this thing works just as good as a "Joe Cell".

Ok Just because I wanted to see if it could be done



And you ask why am I crazy enough to try this? Well.. . . .



Unless you really like banging your head against a wall don't try this. The fitment issues of getting the turbo in this space are the real problem.

Isn't that essentially how the Callaway 944 turbo system was configured?

That is neither electric, nor a supercharger. And definitely not what the OP linked to.
