Excuse my ignorance, but in theory would a leaf blower have enough power to spool a turbo?

You’d be surprised what a leaf blower will do… :lol: Although i do know that it wouldnt do shit for a turbo, you’d be better off to just do it the way they did in this video.

Yeah all in all It’s prob gonna cost me a few pennys to get it up and going cuz I need an electric leaf blower, cuz the gas ones won’t fit under the hood, I’ll need an inverter to power it, gonna have to make sure the charging system is half ass up to snuff, y’know all that good shit. But I have started rounding up some of the parts, I’ll try to post some pics up today or tomorrow.

We may also blow up an old omni with the same setup, kinda feel like cluttering up the already packed wreckers yard in town.
