I also looked at the website and played the video. No where was there any claim of increased power. They sure look nice with the polished air bell and all.
I also noticed that they are forcing the air through the carbs, not pulling the air through. All the snowmobiles shown, had the carbs between the engine and the blower. Only the motorcycle had the air pulled into the carb. And what is with those carbs ? Look like motorcycle carbs to me. I don't understand how they can get the fuel mixture right when you force air through the carb. The high pressure in the venturi would force the fuel right back into the float bowl. To make a turbo charger or supercharger work on a two cycle, you need to pinch off the exhaust port so that pressure can build up in the cylinder. The Rotax RAV valve could be adjusted (maybe) to do that job.
