Yeah the current POS electric chargers are crap. But as Jon said the theory works. The real problem is powering the turbine or fan. I think if a car manufacturer put some decent R&D into it, it could be the next phase of Forced Induction.
I have thought about this for a while, and I think with electro magnets (I think thats what they're called - damn brain) you could get crazy RPM's happening on your turbine and be able to control its speed by the current (small) that you feed into the magnets. I can't go more in depth because my high school physics is getting a bit fuzzy  but I think the general idea is good - with a bit more thought put into it than these crappy ebay ones.I guess the bonus of a decent electric turbo would be the same as a supercharger - no blockages in your exhaust.
