I have an Idea for a electric supercharger that Might Work! Im into RC cars and a typical 4WD electric touring car motor delivers 1/2 an hp for around 20-70 USD. take one and put it into a pipe that connects from the Grille to the intake and it might create boost, just like the leaf blower intake thing. only BETTER. I will draw schematics later and post them. tell me what you think and dont be afraid to say: too ricer.

There is already an "e-supercharger" gimmick that's been for sale for a long time now. Google it and you will see whats up. Will it work on an IS F? Naa.

I know about the gimmick, I mean something that will actually WORK
The "E Charger" is like $550 bucks I think for 1.5lbs of boost lol !!
^1.5 lbs of boost will barely make my hair move. :p

It been done already. It wont work. ;)
A fan at the end of a R/C car motor spinning at 30k rpm can move a small volume of air around it quickly but to create boost we are faced with a problem of forcing air into a 5L vacuum at a faster rate than it can suck - you need to move a huge volume of air a fast rate.
just hook up a lawn blower to your intake or if your cheap use a hair dryer =)
