horsepower gains...for cheap!

.... by using a leaf blower?

Was looking around the internet and came across a leaf blower turbocharged car, so i decided to research it a bit more lol



Theres also a video of guys using a leaf blower on a dyno:

i have also seen one where a guy did it on his 4.3L blazer/jimmy whatever and it made gains. that being said.......this has to be up there with the most redneck backyard-banger hillbilly upgrade ever. even the picture you posted is of the Prime vehicles of choice for old rockers; late 80's-early 90's 215hp mustang.
very entertaining though. i also like the duck call on the BOV
