and of course the 25 HP increase

they make a 1psi and a 1.7psi version of the e-ram. I would never use if but I did come across a guy with one on hit late 90's toyota celica; I could tell a difference from on and off.
Though the e-ram is an 800cfm unit while that ebay one is a 250cfm.

I think the concept is good. Electric boost could potentially provide the best control but this product looks cheap.
I find it odd that it took these guys over 6 years to figure out #2 and #3 below.
Compatability information:
NEW UPDATE (10/04): After continual comprehensive testing, we have found that there are only three reasons for the e-RAM not providing HP gains.
1) For some engines with Mass-Air-Flow (MAF) Sensors, performance gain can be effected by the position of the e-RAM on the intake.
Late model vehicles from AUDI, FORD, MAZDA, & NISSAN RESPOND WITH HP GAINS ONLY WHEN THE e-RAM-INLINE IS MOUNTED BETWEEN THE MAF SENSOR AND THE THROTTLE-BODY. Included in this list is the late 90'S GM 2.4L ENGINES (found on Cavalier and Grand AM)All other makes of vehicles and engine types allow for the mounting of the e-RAM in any location regardless of ECU and air-sensor type.
2) Performance gain is limited by the size of your engine.
In order to produce the 1 PSI of pressure to the intake, the e-RAM requires a minimum air-flow ratio of 2.5:1 (e-RAM air-flow VS. engine air-flow requirement). The e-RAM flows 1000 CFM, and a 5.0L engine requires a maximum of 450 CFM at redline & full-throttle. Because of this, an engine must be 5.0L displacement or smaller for the e-RAM to produce the 5% HP gains through max RPM. All engines above 5.0 Liters will require two e-RAMs in parallel (separately) feeding a single intake to get 4%-6% gains (or one e-RAM per intake on dual throttle-body engines like the Dodge Viper V10)
3) Performance gain is limited by the current HP output of your engine. We have found that engines that produce greater than 325 HP require two e-RAM units in parallel to receive 5% HP gain (reason is much the same as #2 above)
