It basically stores a large electric charge and can be suddenly released like nitrous they claim. 20psi within under a second, and around a 15 second burst or so. Any thoughts? I know garret has been working on electric turbo's for a while now. Also no one has mentioned VATN turbos yet either, which surprises me.
