Polished intakes suck;  and high flow *volume* does not necessarily make
for a higher performing engine.

And you're pressurizing what???  Nothing really.  Your blower is running no
load;  the heat is from its internal friction and electrical
resistance.  Take some basic physics classes along with shop.   Your
comparison is not valid.  And even the scammer, err.. inventor says it
pulls more than 10A.

BTW - the motors on the thing look like 3 engine starters.  What's one of
those typically rated?
