Default my smog pump idea
so i took things apart and my smog pump puts out 11-14 psi at idle. my idea is to use the pump as a turbo. if i can find a way to adapt it to my intake i bet it would be good. and if not at least i can say i tried.
any ideas or comments please let me know

Pressure isn't what you need you are going to need way more volume at that pressure than what a smog pump can produce. Good idea though.

Yea what is the smog pump for? All i can out is that it injects air into the exaust and it also uses up gas and robs your horsepower? Wheres mythbusters when you need them?
