this is a cheap forced air induction upgrade. Just like the other 2 FAI methods (supercharger and turbocharger), it works by forcing more air into the cylinders and therefore increasing power.
What these chops seems to be doing is spraying NO2 into the leaf blower stream to get the huge figures.
This is lame...

In the clip they spray some nos (naaawwws) into the air intake of the leaf blower for the third run with the civic and the run with the truck.. The leaf blower by itself has quite a tidy gain as well though!
