I just don't get the people who try to convince others that superchargers are a waste, a turbo does everything better, etc.
Maybe it does depending on your viewpoints, but we should all be able to agree that the power increases are welcome... no matter what the torque curve looks like.

Why beat up on the electric supercharger guys when they are seeing increases and are happy?

If you are happy with your kit and others are talking crap about your choices or don't understand you, then I believe YOU are the one doing it right. If you build your car to impress others or gain the approval of random people on the Internet, you will quickly find that you can't make everyone happy.... but you sure as hell can make yourself happy
Just for shits and giggles, I recommend you go test drive a 2015/2016 WRX. You'd be impressed with the new engine.
