Would help if the link actually worked... What is it?

*EDIT* - Based on your double post, you are referring to an electric supercharger.

Let me just say that there isn't a single electronic supercharger that will have a positive benefit on a vehicle. To operate effectively, they would need to draw crazy amperage, drawing more horsepower than they'll make. The conversion from hp, to amps, back to hp will never work as efficiently as a conventional csc, s/c, or turbo.

You could do that, but what he meant is that, there is only so much those electric motors can take until they just burn into a little ball of melted plastic
