I would LOVE to see the "manufacturer's" advertisements and claims.

1 PSI positive pressure with, versus several inches of vacuum without.
Feasible? yes. Practical? hardly.

Well, since the title says leaf blower, I have to chime in....
I have seen a gas powered leaf blower installed on a 87 300zx NA. It was the "Rust in the wind" car at the 2009 24 hours of lemons race in CT. I talked to a guy on the team, he said it did actually make a little HP. He said he tied it into the actual fuel supply so it could keep going over the 15 hour race. I think it died at the end of the first day (8 hours of running).
Sounded really weird going around the track!
