id say its a rip off

otherwise you would see rally cars etc use them
i havent seen one.

would rather spend my £300 or however much on other things
a decent panel filter, cold air feed into the box,
then a exhaust system would be better for the same cash

seen these many a time basicly there a 12v inline bathroom extractor fan avalible for about £10 from an electrical wholesalers 2 bits of hose say £5 and a unversail filter say £15

been discussed many times on various forums there are no proven figures for these but in theory putting a fan will on disturb the air and when turned off it would impead the air flow.The flow characteristics would also change confusing the ecu as the air metering would be incorrect the ecu would compensate by over fueling and in worst case underfuel

many moons ago one of the mags put a duel fan one on a 200sx and rolling roaded the car before and after with i the car lost 7% of its power

in short there as about much use as a \"Resistor of Justice\"

£300-400 will get you a rolling road remap
