   The Generation 3 is the Worlds first electric twin supercharger.
   
   The Generation 3 works in same way as the Generation 1 and 2, by applying greater air density than the engine Naturally aspires (100% volumetric efficiency) Forcing air past the MAS (Mass airflow sensor), Thus generating BOOST. The MAS will compensate for any fuel adjustments required. This system operates at a combined 75,000 rpm and from the moment you arm it via a “In car contact switch” 2/10ths of a second later it is at full pressure and delivering a smooth acceleration right through the rev range. Please note that this system delivers serious power and is not for the faint hearted!
   
   There are 2 different ways in witch the system can be “Armed”.
   1. via a contact switch under the acceleration pedal.
   2. via a dashboard based arm switch.
   
   Twin Turbo, 2.7psi of boost, up to 40 bhp guaranteed
   
   £320.00
   
   lmao there is a twin aswell

   oh boy, these crazy goons and their inventions only induce the power of laughter. I bet we have a bill gates lookalike behind it, that should help to put people off.
