    Yeah but there is a problem with this picture. The leaf blower is powered from something other then that car. Try to take that 1500 watt draw off the car battery and see how much gains you get :) Loading up the alternator will put a significant load on the engine. So if your thinking those ebay super chargers will give you anything, think again :) But if you want to strap on a gas leaf blower motor under the hood go for it ;) Hell even tap it into your gas tank with a Y-Pipe :)

    Now a gas one might be the way to go! But your extra 10 hp will cost you 30% more in gas :)

    It would be so funny to pull up to an intersecond and your main motor is idling and your leaf blower is just howeling away :)
