What are the legalities of electric turbos I am getting one off a mate it goes in the intake with a little servo with a switch that goes on the accelerator pedal it will only turn on when you put your foot to the floor it pulls 60 amps and gives you an instant boost no lag would love to know if I can run it on my car when I'm on my green p's and other stuff about it

Not sure about the legalities.

It'll take .62 watts to run it, probably wouldn't even add that much. So put it on so we can see if it works.

Unless it pulls like hundreds of amps it isn't going to be doing much more then restricting air flow
Real electric turbos are just a electric motor that spools up a normal turbo pretty much instantly to stop lag they don't run for long as they draw over 400 amps

These have to be installed with the use of a sky hook don't they? and I've read that they should be lubricated with snake oil.
