He's discovered perpetual motion!
The kit includes a 5amp blade fuse.
5amp at 12V = 60watts
60watts = 0.0804613254 horsepower
So; he's claiming "25 - 30% Performance increase" for the input of .08 horsepower.
'king amazing!
to be fair, any supercharger or turbocharger will use less power than it consumes, otherwise it'd be a rather pointless device. The extra power comes from the extra fuel burned.The kit includes a 5amp blade fuse.

This probably will up power, ever so slightly, by reducing suction losses. But it would be very very marginal.

Done a bit of research, a rough rule of thumb for a supercharger power consumption is 10% of the additional power. So, if a supercharger adds 25hp, it will need a 2.5hp power source. That's about 155amps at 12volt. BIG wires and fuses!
