it's been done, and the results are unimpressive. The build quality of the units is generally also pretty poor, and if something were to come off & get carried up the intake, it could do major damage. Just not worth it.

lol! pretty smart scam though, like those "performance" chips. i wonder if that little fan could handle those air mattresses <-bad spelling
or a personal cooling system. that would be cool. lol

That's the only electric charger that is anywhere convincing and even so...still iffy on if the gains are worth the money, especially since e-ram is one of the more expensive ones that I've seen.

800 cfm might do something, but for that price I would never even consider it for the gain.
