It's a scam. That's all there is to say about it.

Would this thing actually slow the rate at which air passes through the filter at higher RPMs?

Put simply, an electric motor simply can't be strong enough to push enough air without tons upon tons of power behind it. Basically, to make something like this work, you'd need a large bank of heavy batteries, and you wouldn't be able to find an alternator powerful enough to keep them charged. Any minuscule power gains would be negated by the tons of weight that would have to be added to the car.
