So I spend 1500 and get low end torque comparable to what I would get for 3000. But for the extra 3000 I also get high end torque and expandability. Seems to me that if you are willing to spend 1500 to enhance performance of a 26000 car than you ought to be willing to spend another 1500 to make it a big boy mod.
The system will always be limited by a fixed flow that is dependent on kw availability from the engine, whatever size - 2.0L +/-. This is why this solution is not taken seriously. However, as a toy that slaps on and off faster than you can eat a sandwich its pretty darn neat. I would buy it for $200 to have some kicks, but for 1500 I would just spend the extra amount to get proper boost.
I do love the R&D and as parts become cheaper and batteries become better you never know where the price point could go. But its all about price point, it will never ever compare to conventional FI systems, as everyone involves agrees. So its all about price, as I see it.
