Kilowatts is the metric version of horsepower.
The First thing, the simulator makes the sound of a turbo, that high pitch screaming sound. A guy i work with bought one for his beater feista as a joke. It the funniest thing ever. It does kind of sound like he has a turbo on it, he trips out the local ricers.
As for the second link.
If you had an electric fan like that that could provide massive airflow and pressure like a super/turbocharger does it would work great.
Unfortunately that little POS isn't going to give you enough flow or pressure to move a good fart.
If it doesn't put out at least as much flow as the engines sucks in under vacuum you will loose power. An engineer I work with keeps talking about buying one and running flow test on it.

HotRod mag answered the "electric turbo" question with some real figures. I don't remember the numbers exactly, but what it came down to was that to provide enough airflow to gain real hp, you would need a ton of electrical power to run it, and to generate that power you would need a HUGE alternator, and to run that alternator, you would need a whole 'nother engine. I'll see if I can find it. It's pretty good.

If you want ZOOM ZOOM , Go fast , wrap myself around a power pole kinda performance,
A ranger is not for you.
It is a pickup truck , not a sports car and never intended to be such.
It is a WORK vehicle.
Not the biggest.
Not the fastest.
But it does just what it was designed to do.
