Velocity Superchargers

Just noticed this on eBay:
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/170938105593
Seems very cheap. Hard to see in detail, the pics are crap. The WEBSITE that is mentioned in the eBay ad isn't up and running yet.
Just wondering if anyone here had their cars used, or if anyone knows which workshops were used in the testing and tuning of these?

Is it just me or is that one of the most annoying eBay ads you've ever seen? It will be interesting to see the results. Whose first?

We had their rep drop in and tell us all about it , making lots of claims.
We offered to fit up one of their kits on one of our cars and tune it in-house to see whether their claims were what they were saying they were.
They agreed and offered to supply a kit for us.

We are expecting a kit to be dropped off any time now......we've been waiting for about 2 and a half years........

SILENT BLOWER MEANS NO FRICTION, FRICTION CREATES HEAT!

Yeah ok.....

That would be a $401 saving....

These guys should forget selling superchargers if they have found a way to eliminate friction...... They should be going for a nobel prize......

That's hillarious Luis! It has been 6 years in the making though...

"We are releasing this kit due to public demand"
Nobody here has heard of them, where's all this demand coming from?

"Produces power figures of 100 to 1000 horsepower"
Pretty big ballpark to work with, can't be disappointed if you fall in that range I guess

Seems they've also found a way around thermodynamics.

He has a mobile number in the ad, someone give him a call and pretend to be from fair trading or the ACCC.

"Produces power figures of 100 to 1000 horsepower"

...including whatever power your engine originally produced, no doubt

Edit: No wait, I read the ad. They've got German engineers helping them. This is an absolute performance BARGAIN!!!

looks legit.

Are the Vortech kits not sealed with no oil feed not the same type of thing?

They just look like an el-cheapo version of a Vortech to me, but with a massive brass band introduction
