- wants to easily install/uninstall/re-install over a weekend (because I don't want to get my butt kicked in Street Mod)

No other system, not even the 'easy to install' Innovate SC can do this. Is it better for power than any of the turbo kits out there? Not even close. Does it produce more power and all the cool sounds than the base Innovate Kit makes? Probably not. But it does make for some impressive results, and it's exciting for a lot of people that it's achieving those results in a very different means (electric motor driven centrifugal compressor). Science, yo.
This is hard to understand for some people. I am asked constantly why I didn't just buy a turbo kit that offers more power. Everyone has their reasons, but for some its just "it doesn't offer as much power as X kit? Why would you even consider it???"

Several people have also referred to the innovate/Vortech kit as "overpriced belt driven fans"

There are fanboys on all sides of the argument. I am thinking about how much fun this ESC would be with my vortech kit to boost the low end power..... or if its even possible/feasible to have the ESC run in front of the supercharger
