Noz Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 without a huge power source, this wont work. its been proven to work with enough power, but the weight of the vast number of batteries counter acts any improvement. these are just myth's to make money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vertex Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 (edited) As noz pointed out. Yes they work(to a degree) but need a nuclear power plant in the boot. Edited July 19, 2012 by vertex (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr_Doom Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 A lot more advanced than the version the OP has linked to, but apparently BMW have patented an electric turbo that will reduce lag when coupled with a bigger turbo; http://www.topspeed.com/cars/car-news/bmw-files-patent-for-electric-powered-turbocharger-tri-turbo-m3-still-a-possibility-ar119350.html http://www.autoguide.com/auto-news/2011/11/bmw-patents-electric-turbocharger-will-we-see-it-in-the-next-m3.html The new M3 was supposed to be a 3.3L Tri-turbo 450bhp engine with one of the turbos being electric but i don't think they had it finished in time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
