electric blower - homemade elec turbo?
i was searching for 12v water pumps for a school project and came across this: its a 12v 105cfm electric blower with a 3" output. i thought this would be a prime candidate for someone to do a homemade electric turbo.. one that might actually work 
if i wasnt legitimately boosted already, i would experiment with this for sure. someone needs to give it a try

The only thing with this is you don't know how much PSi it's producing.It could be producing 105CFM at only 3PSi or 105CFM at 90PSi.

Also, at 12V, would it be able to handle the back pressure it could produce?

 lol
I'm just saying, it could be a good idea if we knew how much PSi it produced and if the motor could handle certain things

There's still a surge to the blower, although it's almost instant, there's still surge. Could be something to look into, upgrade it to metal casing, possible upgrade motor.

the gas leaf blower is hardly a comparison to this electric blower. this blower is made out of plastic which would melt if you attached it to your car. electric blowers like this are usually used for ventilation.

it was a point to prove power gains.. not for style points or functionality
as that leaf blower is pushing way more than this electric thing would...
