Might as well strap a Stebel to my carby, it would probably do a better job.

I actually did something similar in the 90's. Using a old hair dryer on my Vaux Chevanne.
It actually worked a little bit. So I think this has a little potential.
But not worth $180, more likely $40.

Nope. Think of it like an air ram, that simulates you doing 100kmh when your only doing 10kmh

I'm thinking maybe DangerousBastard has swapped his icecreams for this francise???

I'm going to buy one of these and a replacement powerband for my CBR.

Everything I've read suggests that ram-air has no effect at speeds of 100km/h. All to do with atmospheric pressure and other stuff I know nothing about. I dare say a hairdryer would do nothing to an engines performance. Well nothing positive.
