2psi!!
That requires two exclamation points!!
I like the jumpy inconclusive dyno of the Civic. (that doesn't have any details when you click on it)
Absolutely no mechanical skills to build and install.....FROM SCRATCH? Come on. Who's making this product, Stephen Hawking?

You can completely stop the air flow with your hand. However, the good thing about installing a marine blower in a car is that if you ever ran off the road and into a canal or a lake, the blower and hose are US Coast Guard approved.
