whats an air charger?? looks kinda like a fuel reg...

its a hairdrier on your intake arm. It "blows" air up inside.

These have been known to restrict air more than aid or improve

how is it supposed to create more power by drawing off your battery to compress air. all this does is forces the alternator to work harder to recharge the battery. as none of these things are 100 percent efficient you would actually lose power. unless i am missing something

no i think right pic. Im capped and the image hasnt loaded even yet lol.

This looks like something totally different. Why does it have some sort of pressure activated valved / wastegate ?

dont know if your pic loaded....its a vacuum gauge on there ??!!??

to guage how much vaccum is in your intake arm?
a guage with a reading taken from your intake manifold?

i dont like the look of it bro.cant see anything that it could be doing that would benefit your intake.as was said,even the electrical ones that blow air up there actually harm your power.you would need a dyno fan stuck to the intake arm to mimick the force of the air flow that you get a 60km/h lol

the hose is connected to a vacuum line . the gauge is a vacuum gauge, which has a pin on the top of the charger, then u adjust how much air u wanna go in. it sucks air. nothing to do with the battery
