Wow. I honestly didn't believe it would make six PSI, but that video is proof enough for me that it did.
And no, that engine wasn't running. Even if it was running, it wouldn't make much difference at idle, but at full throttle, the engine is going to speed up that electric motor.. ever hear the phrase "suck start a leaf blower?" Thats what will happen sorta.

All I can say is: wow. I *could* do the math to prove this won't work, but I just don't feel like it. Have fun with this! I'ma laugh anyways!!!

you guys are so full of shit. I believe that is 6 psi with the throttle plate closed lol.I doubt it will make any boost at all above idle on a 3.0L engine.

Yea that's true, with the TB open the vaccuum source would overpower the turbo and restrict air. Duh. Well I tried to make it sound like it would work Lol. I'll definitly stick with the real thing.

Watch this though, it may work good to shoot ping pong balls.

Wow, I'm sure if I hooked up some mcdonalds straws to my intake manifold and blew hard enough with the car off I could get a PSI in there too haha, what a crock of shit, turn the car on dude.

... ok ok maybe I couldn't even get one PSI but you get the idea

Words cannot describe this. These people on the google blog swear that it will work. Lets do the math and spread that all over the internet to set things straight.

This may not be the correct way to do it, but it must be the basics behind it.

Assuming 100% volumetric efficiency... is that realistic at high RPM in one of these engines? Lets round it down to 85%. I really don't know what the V-6 makes for VE.

3.0 liters = .105944 cubic feet. 85% of that is about .09 cubic feet. Since its a 4-stroke engine, this engine displaces .045 cubic feet of air per engine revolution. Assume 5,000 RPM. 225 cubic feet per minute air flow is what the V-6 flows at 5000 RPM.

So, with THIS information, it seems that these electric fans will not impede air flow if they are capable of moving more than 225 CFM of air. How much air do they claim to move?

OK, say the fan CAN move the amount of air required. Fine. Now, here's some more things to consider:
the fan is designed to move that air with little to no resistance. If you put resistance on it, the blades aren't designed to make pressure, only move volume. What does this mean? It means that the backed up air will #1: cause a pressure surge, #2: the temperature of the air will get too high with that pressure and cause cavitation greatly reducing the efficiency of the fan(and can destroy the blades), #3: more than likely the electric motor won't be able to provide enough power to actually create any sort of pressure because it won't have the torque to keep the fan spinning at the velocity needed to move the volume of air to make pressure. If it could, the amperage draw would be WAY too much for that #12 gage wire they have on it, and if you DID get the power to it, the alternator would suck it right back.

As far as the fans not impeading airflow...well, they still technically do even if they are moving the required amount of air. Since the air is still being sucked in by the engine and not the fan, laminar(even) flow is a must for good flow numbers. That fan breaks that all up and produces turbulent flow out of it for a good distance. If there are any curves in the piping directly after the fan the air won't want to go around that corner, back up and create the issues stated above. Flow will actually DECREASE.

If you wanted to go all out you should put one of those Turbonators (or whatever the hell they're called)! THAT'LL straighten the flow right out!

Haha well I'm not sure about Turbonator thing but I do know I'm putting a light screen between the turbo and the TB incase it breaks, I don't want plastic chunks in me car D:
