I would like to say to anyone ordering from this Thorton Electric Supercharger. DON'T
www.electricsupercharger.net/index.php
I called the phone number and asked the salesman if they had a Supercharger for my aplication and he went over some specifics with me and said they had a supercharger that would fit my needs. What you see on the Thorton home page is a nice looking polished, unit. $99.95 + $29.95 S & H. and the shipping charge supports that there may be some quality in the product. Not so, it was a plastic tube (2.5 in dia.) with a small fan in the middle.
What I received from them was a Air circulation for an inboard motor boat $19.00 at your local Wal-Mart. After more communication with Thorton Co. I was offered my $99.95 back if I Shelled out more for shipping it back. Well I did not think that was fair at all beings the product was so grossly misleading. More talk fallowed and they started insulting me. I then reported it to the B.B.B. and the Bureau was not able to locate them. Dead End.
Do Not Deal With Them. Life is to short. I just hope this helps put them out of business so they can't prey on good Americans who earn their Money.

..you go to this scam site..and click on "contact", "FAQ,"Terms", anything..and can you find a phone number or address for this crap?
No..no, you can not. So yes..it is concluded..you were ripped off.
But it is 100% avoidable by ANY consumer. Research before buying, and make sure at the VERY least..there is more contact info then email if there is a problem.
You would have been better off buying this fan and plastic tube from a street vendor...because at least you would have had a face/last known location to identify when you realize you were scammed.
I really hope others can learn from this report..but not just to avoid wasting money on a fan and plastic tube that is supposed to be a supercharger..but simple common sense to make sure you know a little about someone before you send them funds.
