There is a "turbonator' advertised on the Vibe E bay accessory board for 69.95. Can some tell me if it is any good and if it really works??? I know this is probably a STUPID question, but has anybody tried it?? Or better still, has anybody like me been stupid enough to ask about it??? It lookks easy enough to install, but, does putting more air "IN' help????? No flames please.

If it's on ebay, and it's not a GM OEM supercharger, keep on going and don't look back. Most of that crap is just that...crap.

Turbonator and electric supercharger are worthless. Just like the magic chip that gives you 20hp for few dollars. Stay far away.

I had a feeling it was worthless. There is an old Welsh saying "If it's too good to be true...it is too good to be true"!!!!!!! Thanks for the quick replies...

there will be one day when an electric turbo is efficient and usable. not today though. in the coming 42 volt system days.if you are interested in a supercharger or turbo. keep an eye out for a gm oem supercharger on ebay. they go for cheap. 1.5k or so.good luck.
