An integrated system for increasing power output from an internal combustion engine. System facilitates an interface for controlling and conditioning of the amount of intake air into an internal combustion engine. The system interfaces to a controller and provides critical data, an active intercooler, power buffer, and an electrically driven supercharger. An operator interface provides monitoring and control to a controller for expanded operator control. A power buffer relieves host power system from loading during high demand operation. A system of advanced sensors and processing from a controller combine to facilitate maximum power output with reduced risks. Active heat removal enables system operation in a vehicle at rest or in traffic. Active conditioning system flexibility facilitates improved implementation of cold temperature environment starting and operation. A low cost option with commercial non-positive displacement blowers implements affordable enhancements for internal combustion engines.
