If you are into car audio, you could use the turbo to cool your amps.

Well, I'm glad we can put this to rest forever. Any time anyone ever asks "what about electric turbos?" on any forum anywhere, I'll point them here. It's obvious that they couldn't possibly work, but I'm glad you had a scientific mind about it.
Is that air filter washable? Might not have been such a bad deal in the end if it is. You've also got a nice 12v fan to play with now.
I also think your car is SUPER cool.

nice work 
I don't know if anyone has mentioned this yet, but I remember reading about these "turbos" and a guy traced them back and found that they are manufactured as exhaust fans for submarine bathrooms.  Easy money for whoever is selling these as a turbo, haha.

wouldn't do anything, I guarantee it. It only makes 6 psi of pressure with the engine shut off!!! That means all it is doing is building up pressure between the "turbo" outlet, and the throttle body lol. Now that is weak. There is no way it has enough power to create any boost on any engine. Unless maybe its on a dirt bike or something.

Make sure you leave negative feedback on ebay for the seller.
The product does not work as advertised, and you proved it.

I saw th vid of the honda and GMC Sonoma dynoed with the leaf blower. They did it forst with just the blower, then added naaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwssssss to the mix. Honda took a crap on top end when the NOS was added, but the Sonoma went from stock 175 to 228HP with the NOS and blower. It was hitting the 210 mark with the blower alone.
