Will this work??

I am wondering cuz I have a small fan (it's around 5" in diameter) with the moulding to fit in my air intake box.
i want to know if i stick this fan in my oem intake just before air gets to the filter and have it blowing air at the air filter and towards the engine, will it work as in blowing more then the normal amount of air into the engine.

i'm just wondering will this will work as in getting better mpg

no it wont, they dont produce enough CFM

the best electric superchargers out there do work, but the gains are minimal and they draw HUGE current so extra batteries are needed, and the price of the units alone is astronomical

dont bother cause you dont know how much air the fan can push. When your going threw the gears at high rpm it might actually restrict the air flow
just get a good cold air intake prob. be better 4 ya
