Yep, see? It will work.

A 3.0 Ranger is maybe 150 cubic inches. That's 144 cubic inches per cubic feet so the 150cubic feet blower would be good for no boost and the 250cubic foot would give almost twice what is from the atmosphere. So if 15psi is the atmospere, the 250 would give maybe 25psi.

Not to be rude, but there is a lot wrong with what you just said.

To add to what Beanmachine posted, here is a thread about these I started a while ago.

i guess we need to dyno test these stupid things on cars and post results and video in these stupid threads for people to get it.

I have no doubt that you could get one to work... That's easy... Being practical is another thing... Sure you can probably find a motor to make 5-6psi but the extra weight you would have to carry the electrical capacity to run it for more than a second would negate the results... I can put my car on the dyno and it can make 800 hp, and I can put an F1 car on the dyno and it can make 800hp... Now, there is no doubt an F1 car will be faster than mine because it weighs oh so much less...

I'm no expert but I believe CFM and PSI are much different when it comes to pumping air into an engine. I also remember reading something about using a leaf blower as a supercharger,it did add some power but that was on a Geo with a 3 cylinder. I think it's one thing to move air quickly or in high volumes and another to build pressure(boost). Also it not as simple as add boost and make more power,you have to get the correct ammount of fuel to match the boost or you fry the engine.

You'd likely get a more practical performance boost by making sure your exhaust tip points straight rearward instead of losing all that extra push to the side of the truck or downward.

Though HERE is the one that supposedly really works.

Link's not working well. Page shows up, but it's all X'es.

 

[CJREX]

Fixed.

His page has a goofy script running.

You have to go through the menus to get to the ESC Electric Supercharger.

Triple electric turbos anyone?

Actually if you have a mandrel bent exhaust and the bends dont cause a restriction the exhaust tip pointed out the side will make a little more power. When you have airflow over a hole or low spot it creates a low pressure area. I have tested this theory by blowing an airhose over the end of a tube at a right angle and put a cigerette at the other end,it drew the smoke through the tube. That is the same theory behind X pipes in dual exhaust set ups.
