ADM2 Air Charger Electric Super Charger

**chuaed** · November 5th, 2007 07:51 AM

One popular method of increasing an engine’s performance is to cram as much air and fuel into the combustion chamber using turbochargers or supercharger. However, these mechanical devices are costly and require major modifications. Some performance cars attempt to introduce a ‘Ram Air’ system by pushing air into the engine at high speeds.

The ADM Air Charger 2 is an electrically driven Supercharger as it forces more air into the engine increasing the engine efficiency. By the allowing the engine to have access to more air easily, the engine will increase its power and torque output. The ADM Air Charger 2 is a variable speed system and has a separate electronic controller to monitor the engine load and vary the blower speed to match the engine load. As it is a variable speed system, the ADM Air Charger 2 will provide significant torque gains even at engine speeds below 4000 rpm where most drivers spend their time. Because the ADM Air Charger 2 does not require major modifications to the air intake system, installation will take less than an hour. The ADM Air Charger 2 takes up about 15 amps of current and will flow more than 500 CFM Cubic Feet of Air Per Minute even at 2000rpm when it detects a high engine load.

saw this one on the net, guys whats your take on this?

i didn't click on the link but more often than not devices like that are pure bs.

The big question is not the CFM per se, but how much pressure the device can build. A fan can flow a ton of CFM, but unless it can build positive pressure between itself and the intake manifold, it won't produce much power.

Funny dynos... Stock vs. ADM2+Unichip... errrh... why not Unichip vs. ADM2+Unichip? The Unichip alone can account for 10-15 hp.

Note that the typical power increase is merely the same as you'd get from a cold-air intake... and the ADM2 does take its intake air from outside. And note, despite that, on some cars, it makes hardly any power at high rpms.

Not worth the money. Sorry...

this is no different than putting an aftermarket air intake and then putting the famous tornado fan inside the air intake.then they both give the added HP is caused by the tornado fan or the electric SC and not the aftermarket air intake.theyre both worthless....

I agree with deedee, it would be cheaper to just buy a portable electric fan and wire to your car and have it pointing at your intake filter as it pulls air from outside the engine bay. That contraption couldn't build enough boost to build enough horsepower to make it worth purchasing.

so dapat pala high speed turbine-like fan, for strong pressure, not just a regular small fan device

Not high speed... high power.

To make positive pressure in the intake manifold on a 2 liter vehicle, you need approximately 10-15 hp worth of fan motor. Any less and the gains aren't worth the money.

So far, only the Thomas Knight kit actually works. That's a custom built 15 hp electric motor. In other words, it makes almost as much power as a Suzuki Raider 150R.

And it costs more than a Raider, to boot... I can't remember, exactly, but I'm pretty sure it costs more than 100,000 pesos (Stateside). And it requires a bespoke battery pack to make that power, as the 12v system in your car doesn't have enough juice.

As an exercise in futility, you can try looking at electric motors in the hardware stores... you'll have a hard time finding any electric system that pumps out more than 1.5 hp.

It looks like a rip-off of another product.

Turbocharged and supercharged engine have pressure boost because they can supply a far greater ampount of air than the engine can suck. They have greater CFM so they have higher pressure boost. The electric supercharger has a lower CFM than its turbocharger counterpart so it has lower pressure boost. CFM has a direct relationship with the pressure boost. I thingk the electric supercharger can add hp to the engine provided it has higher CFM than the engine requires
