Default ATV blower?

So I read you can make a blower of sorts from like a blow up mattress blower? If so how and what will it do? Thanks!

LOL... I should have figured it was performance related with the kind of machine you ride. My bad. Carry on, speed racer.

Really? My brother's kids hit the track with their wolverine all the time. No sorry I have no idea about the blower. I'll ask my bro though. Lol.

can't see how it would work with an efi-
maybe stuffing more air down a carb would work- kinda like the old ram-air hoods back in the 60's... but you'd have to run a rich mixture I would think.
if my memory is correct, the ram air hoods worked off a vacuum and would open the ram when the carb's secondaries opened- dumping fuel down the intake and forcing air around the filter... and a partial vac line would usually run from the carb to the distributor cap to advance the timing a bit.

not quite sure how attaching a mini mattress fan would work- you'd have to filter the air going in as well.
