ok. i was going over everything under my hood, ended up popping off the smog pump and noticed it was pushin a ton of air. also wondering at what psi its pushin at and if somehow, someway you could make a half assed supercharger lol... it sound very unreasonable and stupid to say the least but i figured i'd throw it out there and see what kinda things everyone has to say about the off the wall idea.

I know someone who hooked a smog pump up to a lawn mower as a supercharger, didnt really work too good.
