It will work. The only question is, How well. The whole purpose behind a turbo/supercharger is to move more air into the engine. That is the idea behind the electric one.

Think a hairdryer, just without the heaters. It does push more air than nothing. Therefore you are getting a positive result.

well you won't really get a positive result if the electric motor can't spin fast enough to create pressure. pretty much you will be turning the air as it goes into the intake manifold, thats all.
