THAT IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! Its great someone posted this so that people don't overpay. Whether or not they work is another story. Thru continued testing in 77% heat I'm still doing 0-60 times in the 5.8 range with no flappy valve! The best time as stock is 6.21 at 71-72%. Need say no more. <img src="graemlins/yltype.gif" border="0" alt="[typing]" />

Very interesting. Looks just like the bilge blowers in my Chris Craft cruiser. I never thought of putting them on the 928 though. Seriously, it's amazing that there are many different types listed. Even more amazing, is that people are actually bidding on these things. Even the performance claims should raise suspicion. I guess there really is one born every minute.

If the blowers they are selling don't last longer than they do in a boat..... I'm sure the salt water environment on the coasts does not help longevity either.
