Thumbs up IS 300 SuperCharger Kit?

Can you please give me an output on this (Super Boost Electric SpuerCharger). Does it works?

State of the art ram air electric supercharger design. Water/heat resistant housing in the supercharger along with the durable high flow turbines. Approx. 5.3 inches long, 3 inches wide. Supercharging at 150 CFM and 8000 RPM ram air ratio (similar to Eclipse GSX turbocharger ratio.) Supercharger will provide instant boost upon flick of the switch at open throttle.

Fits any 3 inch intake tube. One way air flow and powered by 12 V power source. Switch included.

Electric Supercharger kit for all years/models of the Lexus IS 300. Unlike typical supercharger that get power from engine belts and can easily damage and blow cylinders, the new Electric Supercharger gets its power from the vacuum inside the throttle body as well as the 12 V power supply from your car battery! Spinning at 150 CFM at 8000 RPM! Similar to the Eclipse GSX Turbocharger! And using the activation switch included in the kit, you will be able to turn on your boost at open throttle. This will allow you to control your boost without having to purchase a $300 boost controller. The supercharger will ram air into the throttle body at over 200 times the normal amount and significantly boost horsepower and torque. U.S. Not recommended to be turned on at closed throttle. This is for Lexus IS300's with intakes only. Not recommended for use with the stock air box. Will elongate intake tube by about 5 inches. Fits in between 3 inch wide intake tube and filter.

Thanks...
